Wy multiply elements

168y^2+7y+(-3y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

168y^2+7y-3y=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

168y^2+4y=0

a = 168; b = 4; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 42-4·168·0
Δ = 16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)-4}{2*168}=\frac{-8}{336}
=-1/42
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)+4}{2*168}=\frac{0}{336}
=0
