Mathematica

a = 1; b = 3; c = 1;
f[x_] := a*x^2 + b*x*Cos[x]; g[x_] := c*Sin[x]
Plot[{f[x], g[x]}, {x, -1.5, 3.5}, {AxesOrigin -> {0, 0}}]
r = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, -1, -.9}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r]  (* A199605, least of 4 roots *)
r = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, 3, 3.1}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r]  (* A199606, greatest of 4 roots *)
