Continue from answer  y=−1±(√3)  x^2 +1=−1±(√3)  x^2 =−2±(√3)  x=±(√(−2+(√3))) ,±(√(−2−(√3)))  All roots are complex , because  numbers under (√(   ))  are negative.

You wrote above:  x^2 +1=−1±(√3)    Is this correct?    It was said that y=log_(10) (x^2 +1)  ∴log_(10) (x^2 +1)=−1±(√3)  x^2 =10^(−1±(√3)) −1    ∴x=±(√(10^(−(1−(√3))) −1)), ±(√(10^(−(1+(√3))) −1))    Have I misread your working?
