x^2-6x+3=0
x=(1/2)(6+/- sqrt (36-12));sqrt24=2 sqrt (6)
x=3+/- sqrt (6), dividing the 2 into both terms
numerically, this is about 5.45 and 0.45

Let D be discriminant.
D=%28-6%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A3
D=36-12
D=24
D=2%2A2%2A2%2A3
D=2%5E2%2A6

x=%286%2B-+sqrt%28D%29%29%2F2

x=%286%2B-+sqrt%282%5E2%2A6%29%29%2F2

x=%286%2B-+2%2Asqrt%286%29%29%2F2
