You can put this solution on YOUR website! YOU ARE CORRECT. HAVE CONFIDENCE..BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF..THE PROBLEM HAS NO REAL NUMBER SOLUTION
ITS DISCRIMINANT =(-2)^2-4*3*5=4-60=-56... IS NEGATIVE.SO IT HAS NO REAL SOLUTION.
ON COMPLETING THE SQUARE YOU GET NEGATIVE VALUE FOR A PERFECT SQUARE WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE IN REAL NUMBERS
