The solutions to a quadratic in the form are given by:



For your problem: , , and , but these numbers have a common factor that you can eliminate, namely 3. Hence, , , and , so:

. Now just do the arithmetic.


I'm pretty sure you mean instead of what you wrote.



The discriminant is just the part of the quadratic formula that is under the radical, , so calculate
