We get rid of parentheses

144x^2+12x-3x=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

144x^2+9x=0

a = 144; b = 9; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 92-4·144·0
Δ = 81
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{81}=9$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(9)-9}{2*144}=\frac{-18}{288}
=-1/16
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(9)+9}{2*144}=\frac{0}{288}
=0
