Wy multiply elements

-228x^2+157x=0

a = -228; b = 157; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 1572-4·(-228)·0
Δ = 24649
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{24649}=157$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(157)-157}{2*-228}=\frac{-314}{-456}
=157/228
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(157)+157}{2*-228}=\frac{0}{-456}
=0
