use the quadratic formula
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
x*2 -3x -1 =0
3 +/- radical ( (-3)*2 - 4(1)(-1) ) 3 +/- radical (9+4)
x_1,_2 =-------------------------- = ---------------- =
2(1) 2
3 +/- radical 13
= ---------------

use
\[x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\]
put
\[a=1,b=-3,c=-1\] get
\[\frac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2-4\times 1\times -1}}{2\times 1}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
this gives
\[\frac{9\pm\sqrt{9+4}}{2}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which in turn gives
\[\frac{9\pm\sqrt{13}}{2}\] and that is your answer
