(7/12)x^2 = (1/12) - x

-
multiply entire equation by 12 to get rid of fractions

7x^2 = 1 - 12x

rearrange to have equation equal zero

7x^2 + 12x - 1 = 0

use the quadratic equation to solve for x

x = ( -12 +/- sqrt(144+28))/14

x = ( -12 +/- sqrt172)/14**************sqrt172=13.15

x=1.15/14 or -25.15/14

x= .08 or -1.8 approximately
