Answer:
See attached for a "Neat" quadratic formula.
a = -1
b = 2
c = 1
x = [-2 +- sqr root( 4 -4*-1*1)] / -2
x = [-2 +- sqr root( 4 -4*-1*1)] / -2
x = [-2 +- sqr root(8)] / -2
x1 = (-2 +2.8284271247) / -2
x1 = .8284271247 / -2
x1 = -0.41421
x2 = (-2 -2.8284271247) / -2
x2 = ( -4.8284271247) / -2
x2 = 2.4142135624
So the equation has the positive solution of
2.4142135624
