3\left(x-\frac{1}{3}\right)^{2}-\frac{13}{3}+\frac{13}{3}=\frac{13}{3}
Add \frac{13}{3} to both sides of the equation.
3\left(x-\frac{1}{3}\right)^{2}=\frac{13}{3}
Subtracting \frac{13}{3} from itself leaves 0.
\frac{3\left(x-\frac{1}{3}\right)^{2}}{3}=\frac{\frac{13}{3}}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
\left(x-\frac{1}{3}\right)^{2}=\frac{\frac{13}{3}}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
\left(x-\frac{1}{3}\right)^{2}=\frac{13}{9}
Divide \frac{13}{3} by 3.
x-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x-\frac{1}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right) x-\frac{1}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=-\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)
Add \frac{1}{3} to both sides of the equation.
x=\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right) x=-\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}-\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)
Subtracting -\frac{1}{3} from itself leaves 0.
x=\frac{\sqrt{13}+1}{3}
Subtract -\frac{1}{3} from \frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}.
x=\frac{1-\sqrt{13}}{3}
Subtract -\frac{1}{3} from -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}.
x=\frac{\sqrt{13}+1}{3} x=\frac{1-\sqrt{13}}{3}
The equation is now solved.
