a = -720; b = 1; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·(-720)·0
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)-1}{2*-720}=\frac{-2}{-1440}
=1/720
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)+1}{2*-720}=\frac{0}{-1440}
=0
