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>
It would be 110x because they are like units, so they can be added together. Really, you are just doing 80 plus 30, and then adding an x on the end.
