5x2 + 12x + 7 = 0

This equation can be factored : (5x + 7) (x + 1) = 0

The equation equals zero when either 5x + 7 = 0 or x + 1 = 0

When 5x + 7 = 0 then 5x = -7 : x = -7/5 or -1.4

When x + 1 = 0 then x = -1

The solutions or roots of this equation are x = -7/5 and x = -1

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
