m%5E2-+%289%2F2%29m=3%2F2
...
m%5E2-%289%2F2%29m%2B%2881%2F16%29=%283%2F2%29%2B%2881%2F16%29
...
%28m-%289%2F4%29%29%5E2=%2824%2B81%29%2F%2816%29
...
%28m-%289%2F4%29%29%5E2=%28105%29%2F%2816%29
..
take the square root
m-(9/4)= +/- 2.561
...
m1= +(2.561)+2.250
m1= 4.811
.........
m2= -2.561+2.250
m2=-0.311
