1x^{2}=-\frac{3}{4}
Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.
x^{2}=\frac{-\frac{3}{4}}{1}
Divide both sides by 1.
x^{2}=\frac{-3}{4\times 1}
Express \frac{-\frac{3}{4}}{1} as a single fraction.
x^{2}=\frac{-3}{4}
Multiply 4 and 1 to get 4.
x^{2}=-\frac{3}{4}
Fraction \frac{-3}{4} can be rewritten as -\frac{3}{4} by extracting the negative sign.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2}
The equation is now solved.
1x^{2}=-\frac{3}{4}
Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.
1x^{2}+\frac{3}{4}=0
Add \frac{3}{4} to both sides.
x^{2}+\frac{3}{4}=0
Reorder the terms.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times \frac{3}{4}}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and \frac{3}{4} for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times \frac{3}{4}}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-3}}{2}
Multiply -4 times \frac{3}{4}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{3}i}{2}
Take the square root of -3.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\sqrt{3}i}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\sqrt{3}i}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}i}{2}
The equation is now solved.
