A quadratic equation can be solved using the discriminant. The roots of the quadratic equation: y1=2aD−b y2=2a−D−b where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant. Because a=3 b=0 c=0 , then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c =
(0)^2 - 4 * (3) * (0) = 0
Because D = 0, then the equation has one root.
y = -b/2a = -0/2/(3)
y1=0
