For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

The discriminant -272 is less than zero. That means that there are no solutions among real numbers.

If you are a student of advanced school algebra and are aware about imaginary numbers, read on.


In the field of imaginary numbers, the square root of -272 is + or - .

The solution is

Here's your graph:

...
So basically this question is impossible or you could say it is a complex number if you have studied it.
