Solve the following problem for the roots by completing the square
3x^2 -12x = 9

3(x^2+3) is the answer you are looking for. :)

3x^2 - 12x = 9
Divide both sides by 3
x^2 - 4x = 3
To make a square with "x^2 - 4x", you need to have a "+ 4" after it so it can be simplified as (x-2)^2.  So add 4 to both sides.
x^2 - 4x + 4 = 7
(x-2)^2 = 7
x - 2 = (square root) of 7
x = 2 (+/-) (square root) of 7.
x = {-0.65, 4.65}

The solutions are -0.65 and 4.65.
