Use the quadraticformula to solve the following. Leave irrational roots in the simplest radical form. 3x^2-4x-5=0
--------------------
a = 3; b = -4; c = -5
---
x = [4 +- sqrt(16 -4*3*-5)]/6
----
x = [4 +- sqrt(76)]/6
---------------------------------
x = [4 +-2sqrt(19)]/6
---------------------------------
x = [2 +-sqrt(19)]/3
