If $a$, $b$ are the roots of $x^2-2x+3$.Then the equation whose roots are $a^3-3a^2+5a-2$ and $b^3-b^2+b+5$ is:




I have not been able to find a better method than to calculate $a$ and $b$ then substitute them into the roots for the new polynomial.



I believe this question can't be transformed in a similar manner as mentioned in this question as the new roots are asymmetrical.



Does a better method than the lackluster substitution, exist?



The answer is:




$x^2-3x+2$

          Since $x^2=2x-3$, we get that $x^3=2x^2-3x=x-6$. Then,
          $$
          begin{align}
          a^3-3a^2+5a-2
          &=(a-6)-3(2a-3)+5a-2\
          &=1
          end{align}
          $$

          and
          $$
          begin{align}
          b^3-b^2+b+5
          &=(b-6)-(2b-3)+b+5\
          &=2
          end{align}
          $$

          It is easy to find an equation which has roots of $1$ and $2$.

            @CaptainQuestion In this case it's actually easier to use long division to compute the remainder - I added that to my answer to show how easy it is.

          Hint:



          As $a,b$ are the roots of $x^2-2x+3=0$



          $a^3-3a^2+5a-3=(a^2-2a+3)(a-1)+1=1$



          Similarly for $b$

            Hint $ x^3-3x^2+5x-2,bmod, color{#c00}{x^2-2x+3}, =, color{#0a0}1 $ (and $= color{#90f}2$ for the other). So we seek a polynomial with roots $color{#0a0}1$ and $color{#90f}2,,$ e.g. $ (x-color{#0a0}1)(x-color{#90f}2)$



            Remark $ $ The remainder is quickly computable by long division (ignoring the unneeded quotient)



            $$begin{align}
            & 1 {-}3 , 5, {-}2\
            &color{#c00}{{-}1, 2 {-}3}\
            & {-}1 2 {-}2\
            &color{#c00}{ 1 {-}2 3}\
            &qquadqquadquad color{#0a0}1
