Answer:

{-14, 16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of this quadratic are a = 1, b = -2 and c = -224.

Thus, the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or (-2)^2 - 4(1)(-224), or 900, whose square root is 30.

Thus, the roots (solutions) are

      -(-2) ± 30

x = -----------------  =  {-14, 16}

             2
