Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
Quadratic equation \"ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc=0\" (in our case \"1x%5E2%2B3x%2B9+=+0\") has the following solutons:
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"x%5B12%5D+=+%28b%2B-sqrt%28+b%5E2-4ac+%29%29%2F2%5Ca\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " For these solutions to exist, the discriminant \"b%5E2-4ac\" should not be a negative number.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " First, we need to compute the discriminant \"b%5E2-4ac\": \"b%5E2-4ac=%283%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A9=-27\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " The discriminant -27 is less than zero. That means that there are no solutions among real numbers.

\n" ); document.write( " If you are a student of advanced school algebra and are aware about imaginary numbers, read on.

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " In the field of imaginary numbers, the square root of -27 is + or - \"sqrt%28+27%29+=+5.19615242270663\".
\n" ); document.write( "
