x² - x - 1 = 0
a = 1, b = -1, c = -1

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1+4} }{2}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{5} }{2}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{5} }{2}\ \ \ \ and\ \ \ \ \frac{1 - \sqrt{5} }{2}

IndieLov: there is a name for that value... that's what im asking not the value.
IndieLov: never mind.
TPS: I didn't understand what you are saying. Name of which value are you talking about?
What you had asked to do is to solve the question and I did.
IndieLov: yeah, there is only one number in the universe that is one greater than it's square. it has a name in mathematics... im asking what that is.
TPS: Then you should ask "there is only one number in the universe that is one greater than it's square. What is its name?"
IndieLov: sorry. il ask that then...
TPS: I don't know the answer to that... but (1+root5)/2 is called the golden ratio...

Solve:-

x^2-(x+1) = 0 for x

\LARGE{\red{\boxed{\purple{\underline{\orange{\mathtt{Solution:↓}}}}}}}

x² - x - 1 = 0

a = 1, b = -1, c = -1

\begin{gathered}x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1+4} }{2}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{5} }{2}\\ \\ x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{5} }{2}\ \ \ \ and\ \ \ \ \frac{1 - \sqrt{5} }{2} \end{gathered}
