You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"D=5%5E2-4%2A20%2A%28-12%29=985\"$ , since the discriminant is greater then 0 the equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "has two solutions: $\"x=%28-5%2Bsqrt%28985%29%29%2F40\"$ and $\"x=%28-5-sqrt%28985%29%29%2F40\"$ . \n" ); document.write( "
