Mathematica

a = 2; b = 1; c = 2;
f[x_] := a*x^2 + b*x; g[x_] := c*Cos[x]
Plot[{f[x], g[x]}, {x, -2, 1}]
r1 = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, -1.02, -1.01}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r1](* A198114 *)
r2 = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, .66, .67}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r2](* A198115 *)
