I believe the answer would be

x = ( - 5 + √(505) )/(12) and \: \frac{ - 5 - \sqrt[]{505} }{12}
Good Luckkk.:-)

Step 1 move all terms to one side
example: 6x^2+5x-20=0
step 2 use the quadratic formula.
How: In general ax^2+c=0, there exists two solutions.

Next: In this case a=6 , b=5, c= -20

Last step: which is Simplify leaves you with the top answer!
