Answer:

Either, (9+√69)/6 or (9-√69)/6

Step wise:

3x²-9x+1=0-------------------(i)

comparing equation onw with (ax²+bx+c=0), we get,

a=3, b=-9, c=1

now,

using Quadratic Formula,

(-b±√b²-4ac)/2a=x

{-(-9)±√(-9)²-4.3.1}/2.3=x

(9±√81-12)/6=x

(9±√69)/6=x

Taking +(ve) sign                   Taking -(ve) sign

(9+√69)/6=0                           (9-√69)/6=0

∴(9+√69)/6=0                         ∴(9-√69)/6=0

[∵They cannot be further solved]
