We multiply all the terms by the denominator


5y+(-4y)-7*20y^2=0

Wy multiply elements

-140y^2+5y+(-4y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-140y^2+5y-4y=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-140y^2+y=0

a = -140; b = 1; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·(-140)·0
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

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