Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 132-4·140·0
Δ = 169
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{169}=13$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(13)-13}{2*140}=\frac{-26}{280}
=-13/140
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(13)+13}{2*140}=\frac{0}{280}
=0
