Question 243355: I have to solve this using the quadratic equation
3x^2+2x+5=0

3x^2+2x+5=0

x=(-2+-sqrt[2^2-4*3*5])/2*3
x=(-2+-sqrt[4-60])/6
x=(-2+-sqrt-56)/6
x=(-2+-7.4833i)/6
x=-2/6+-7.4833i/6
x=-1/3+-1.2472i ans. [complex roots]

YES I'M SURE IT'S NEGATIVE BECAUSE THE FIRST TERM IS -B WHICH IS -2 & 2*A OR 2*3=6. SO -2/6=-1/3.
