Given Quadratic Equations have positive and negative solutions, solve the following and list negative solutions:
a) n^2+(n+1)^2=13 ----> Negative solution is n = -3.
b) n+(n+1)(n+2)=14 ----> n^2 + 4n - 12 = 0 ---> negative solution is n= -6.
c) n(n+2)+n+5=15 ----> n*(n+2) + n = 15-5 = 10 ----> n*(n+3) = 10 ---> negative solution is n = -5.
