t + 3 + 8/t =0

t² + 3t + 8 = 0

Solution for the equation is image

a = 1 , b = 3 , c = 8

If Input the solution with b<0 ⇒  image it is in the form of a +ib

The real number a equals  -3/2  and the real number b equals -(√ 23)/2

If Input the solution with b>0 ⇒  image it is in the form of a +ib

The real number a equals  -3/2  and the real number b equals (√ 23)/2
