Show answer and solution
Answer: 3
Taking moduli, , so or . The value is excluded by . For we have , hence and for . The real part is . It is positive when lies within modulo , i.e. or , which gives only (for , ; is symmetric to ). So exactly three roots qualify. A direct numerical check of all seven roots confirms that only have positive real part.
