Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

No real solution.

Complex solutions are  x =  3 sqrt(2) i    



Discussion:

Real number solutions:

3 and x^2 are both >=0 so their product can not equal -54. No solution


Complex numbers:


3x^2 = -54               => divide both sides by 3

x^2 = - 18 = 9 (-2)    => take square roots of both sides

x = 3 sqrt(2) i        

where i = sqrt(-1)

Thank you,

MrB
