Example

least x: -1.28838923732282692044695376198415263654...
greatest x: 0.646435567527722588379133828108743889...

Mathematica

a = 3; b = 3; c = 4;
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, -1.3, -1.2}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r1](* A198234 *)
r2 = x /. FindRoot[f[x] == g[x], {x, .64, .65}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]
RealDigits[r2](* A198235 *)
