6x^{2}+3=0
Combine x^{2} and 5x^{2} to get 6x^{2}.
6x^{2}=-3
Subtract 3 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x^{2}=\frac{-3}{6}
Divide both sides by 6.
x^{2}=-\frac{1}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-3}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
x=\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}
The equation is now solved.
6x^{2}+3=0
Combine x^{2} and 5x^{2} to get 6x^{2}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 6\times 3}}{2\times 6}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 6 for a, 0 for b, and 3 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 6\times 3}}{2\times 6}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-24\times 3}}{2\times 6}
Multiply -4 times 6.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-72}}{2\times 6}
Multiply -24 times 3.
x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{2}i}{2\times 6}
Take the square root of -72.
x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{2}i}{12}
Multiply 2 times 6.
x=\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{2}i}{12} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{2}i}{12} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}
The equation is now solved.
