A quadratic equation has the general formula expressed as:

ax^2 + bx - c = 0

This equation can be solved by the quadratic formula which is expressed as:

x = ( -b (+ or -) √(b^2 - 4ac) / 2a

From the given equation,

a = 9
b = -54
c = -19

x = ( -(-54) (+ or -) √((-54)^2 - 4(9)(-19)) / 2(9)
x1 = 19/3
x2 = -1/3
