If you can think of nothing else, use general solution formula for quadratic equation, and just perform the needed algebra steps. Be aware if you expect the roots to be equal, then discriminant is 0.

-

discriminant,

which needs to be 0.

Factor?

Either or
You should recheck each to see if they both work.
