@woona b² -4(a)(c) gave a negative result, so that wouldnt have an answer

@mushi I was trying to find one without writing that down, but getting to the same result xD

@mushi @woona unless, of course, you're studying complex numbers, but i wont try to solve this to complex numbers because i have not used them forever

@mushi How so? Isn't it (1^2)-4(2)(-11) = 1 + 88 = 89? Or am I mistaking here? (I am tired, so maybe I am)
-
@omni you're mistaken, "-11" is on the other side of the "=" so it would be positive

@mushi Ah, of course. I knew I was forgetting something.

@woona Try imaginary numbers?
Sunday, 16-Sep-12 22:26:40 UTC from web -
@woona I can *almost*c figure that out... sorry :c
-
@woona add 11 to both sides to get x^2+x+11=0 then use the quadratic formula http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation#Quadratic_formula
