You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+sqrt%283%29%2Ax%5E2+=+-18+
First multiply both sides by +sqrt%283%29+
+3%2Ax%5E2+=+-18%2Asqrt%283%29+
Now divide both sides by 3

+x+=+sqrt%28-1%29+%2A+sqrt%286%29+%2A+root%284%2C3%29+
+x+=+sqrt%286%29+%2A+root%284%2C3%29+%2Ai+
There is also a negative square root which
is this answer with a minus sign.
