Boxing career
Although initially starting off rather weak, with 3 wins, 2 losses, and a draw, Murray had an incredible win streak afterwards. He was undefeated his next 49 fights, against boxers such as Anton LaGrave, Johnny McCarthy, Jimmy Clabby, and many others. However, he was defeated twice in a row by a boxer known as George Chip. He won 2 more consecutive fights, and then lost the next 9 fights in a row. He fought 24 more fights afterwards, bringing his record to 60 wins (45 by knockout), 16 losses, and 9 draws.
gollark: This is actually in further maths but mostly I just harvest knowledge from the internet, YouTube and random Wikipedia pages.
gollark: Anyway! You would probably use a calculator, which contains the formula. Or guess a factor and use polynomial division. Or use numerical methods to approximately get a solution.
gollark: There are none above this due to something called Galois theory, which I don't understand and which is something something abstract algebra something something polynomials.
gollark: There is also a quartic (degree 4 polynomial) formula. This is somehow even worse.
gollark: You will never be asked to memorise it because that would be stupid.
