3k^2-k-5=0

Solution for 3k^2-k-5=0 equation:

3k^2-k-5=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3k^2-1k-5=0

a = 3; b = -1; c = -5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·3·(-5)
Δ = 61
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-\sqrt{61}}{2*3}=\frac{1-\sqrt{61}}{6}
$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{61}}{2*3}=\frac{1+\sqrt{61}}{6}
