Are you sure the equation is not: -3x2 - 2x + 5 = 0?
Which is the same as 3x2 + 2x - 5 = 0 which factorises into (3x + 5)(x - 1) with solutions x = 1 and x = -5/3 = -1 2/3 ~= -1.67.
As stated there are no real solutions to the equation, only complex solutions: x = -1/3 + i sqrt(14)/3 and x = -1/3 - i sqrt(14)/3

How do you solve 3x squared plus 2x equals 16?
3x2 + 2x = 16 ∴ 3x2 + 2x - 16 = 0 ∴ 3x2 - 6x + 8x - 16 = 0 ∴ 3x(x - 2) + 8(x - 2) = 0 ∴ (3x + 8)(x - 2) = 0 ∴ x ∈ {-8/3, 2}
