explain this (math)
Im probably missing something really obvious, but Ive been doing this crap since about 4, and Im tired....so cut me some slack if it is.
Explain to me how: (2 +- {Square root}-44) / 6 Becomes: 1 / 3 +- (i {Square root}11) / 3 The 1/3 I get...no brainer. I get complex numbers. But how in the fuck does root 44 become root 11 |

Yeah
Square root of -44 = square root of (-1 * 4 * 11) = 2i square root of 11  It's always easier to simplify it to read that like
