How can I tell MATLAB to discard two roots and only proceed with one value?

I used the matlab function "roots" to find the roots of a cubic. This is within a for loop, so the values are always changing based on my inputs, but the three roots are generally along the lines of:
T2 =
1.0e+04 *
2.658308259664422
-0.442009626219650
0.057471418250745
How can I tell matlab to take the 0.057471418250745 value and discard the other two values going forward? I'm trying to simulate the brayton cycle if that helps.
Thanks! Tom

Does reassigning help?
T = T2(3);
or removing the first two?
T2(1:2) = [];
I am not familiar with brayton cycle, but if you have a specific criterion for rejection or you mean something else by "discard the other two values going forward" Please share some code or more details about your use case.
