(d+1)(d-4)=0

Solution for (d+1)(d-4)=0 equation:

(d+1)(d-4)=0

We multiply parentheses ..

(+d^2-4d+d-4)=0

We get rid of parentheses

d^2-4d+d-4=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

d^2-3d-4=0

a = 1; b = -3; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -32-4·1·(-4)
Δ = 25
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$d_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$d_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{25}=5$
$d_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)-5}{2*1}=\frac{-2}{2}
=-1
$
$d_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)+5}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2}
=4
