14x + 6 = -4x^2
---
put into standard form:
-4x^2 - 14x - 6 = 0
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=-4, b=-14, and c=-6
---
to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
-4 -14 -6

answer:
the two real roots (i.e. the two x-intercepts), of the quadratic are:
x = -3
x = -0.5
