Problem: What are the roots of 3x^2 + 2x -2 ?
Find all the roots for this polynomial.

 

      -b ± √(b² - 4*a*c)
x = ----------------------
              2a

      -2 ± √(2² - 4*3*-2)
x = -----------------------
              2*3

      -2 ± √(4 + 24)
x = --------------------
              6

      -2 ± √(28)
x = -------------
            6

      -2 ± 5.2915
x = ---------------
            6

      -2 + 5.2915                     -2 - 5.2915
x = ----------------     and   x = ---------------
             6                                       6

      -2 + 5.2915                     -2 - 5.2915
x = ---------------     and   x = ---------------
              6                                     6

      3.2915                 -7.2915
x = ---------    and   x = -----------
        6                        6

x = 0.54858     and   x = -1.21525
