Answer 3

do you know how to complete the square?

Answer 4

Really, walphramalpha for this? Even I can do it with my OWN head

Answer 5

First subtract 9x from both sides so that you have:
\[x^2-9x+3=0\]

Answer 6

Now notice that a = 1, b = -9 and c = 3
Plugging into the formula, we have:
\[x=\frac{9\pm \sqrt{81-4(1)(3)}}{2}\]

Answer 7

Perhaps you can simplify that on your own.
