3x^2 + 36 = 0      divide both sides by 3

x^2 +12 = 0

x^2 = -12

x = +- 2i sqrt3

3x^2+36=0     / Square root

3x + 6 = 0      / minus 6

3x = -6           / divide by 3

x= -2 YAY

Hello Guest..... Thanx for posting on the forum.

    Did you try your answer in the equation to see if it 'works' ?

     what do you think   (3x+6)^2    equals?   Might want to try it !
