For higher power polynomials where quadratic formula is no good,
what methods besides synthetic division and the rational roots Tests
are there to find x intercepts? is there some better methods?

thanks

There is no general "closed-form" solution for quintic (5) or higher power polynomials.

However, you can use numerical methods to approximate solutions for those polynomials.
