To determine the solution of the quadratic equation, use the quadratic formula which states that, x = ((-b +/- sqrt (b² - 4ac)) / 2a From the equation, a = 1, b = 14, and c = 112. Substituting these to the quadratic formula, x = <span>((-14 +/- sqrt (14² - 4(1)(12)) / 2(1) = indeterminate Thus, the equation does not a real number solution. </span>
