the problem states determine the nature of solutions of the equation y^2=2/7y+1/7.
Assume the problem is:

:
= 0
from the sign of the 3rd term (-1/7) we know one solution will be negative and one solution will be positive
:
You can solve it using the quadratic formula, make the coefficients integers;
multiply by 7. Then a=7, b=-2, c=-1
