Mathematica

a = 3; b = 2; c = 1;
f[x_] := a*x^2 + b*x; g[x_] := c*Cos[x]
Plot[{f[x], g[x]}, {x, -1, 1}]
r1 = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, -.9, -.8}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r1] (* A198222 *)
r2 = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, .3, .4}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r2] (* A198223 *)
