Explanation:

The given quadratic equation is :


13x^2 +1 = -10x\\\\or\\\\13x^2+10x+1=0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation is :


x=(-b\pm โˆš(b^2-4ac) )/(2a)

Put a = 13, b = 10 and c = 1

So,


x=(-10\pm โˆš(10^2-4(13)(1)) )/(2(13))\\\\x=-0.118, -0.651

Hence, this is the required solution.
