Question
find all complex solutions of $3x^2 - x + 4 = 0$. (if there is more than one solution, separate them with commas.)
Step1: Identify quadratic coefficients
For $ax^2+bx+c=0$, here $a=3$, $b=-1$, $c=4$
Step2: Use quadratic formula
Quadratic formula: $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
Step3: Calculate discriminant
$\Delta = b^2-4ac = (-1)^2-4(3)(4)=1-48=-47$
Step4: Substitute into formula
$x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{-47}}{2(3)}=\frac{1\pm i\sqrt{47}}{6}$
