Find the roots of the function in exact form
f(x)=11 (^2x^2-5x+1) -1 Because I am posting via my phone I cannot express the precise equation. After f(x)=11 all the following numbers are exponents. I sectioned them off using ( ) Not sure if that makes sense

112x^2-5x+1 - 1 = 0
112x^2-5x+1 = 1
112x^2-5x+1 = 110
So, 2x2-5x+1 = 0
x = (5±√17)/4
