Simplest? Not sure what you mean. You can convert to vertex form.
y=3x%5E2%2B5x-14
y=3%28x%5E2%2B%285%2F3%29x%29-14
y=3%28x%5E2%2B%285%2F3%29x%2B%285%2F6%29%5E2%29-14-3%285%2F6%29%5E2
y=3%28x%2B%285%2F6%29%29%5E2-504%2F36-75%2F36
y=3%28x%2B5%2F6%29%5E2-5729%2F36
y=3%28x%2B5%2F6%29%5E2-193%2F12
I'm not sure that's simpler.

3x^2 5x-14
this is an quadratic equation so
x={-5¡À¡Ì(5^2-4*3*(-14))}/(2*3)
={-5¡À¡Ì(25 168)}/6
={-5¡À¡Ì(293)}/6
