Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

In expanded form, the equation is ...

  x^2 +11x +39 = 0

The discriminant is ...

  11^2 -4(1)(39) = -35

It is negative, so there are only complex roots.

_____

Descartes' rule of signs tells you there are zero positive real roots, because there are zero sign changes in the coefficients.
