100=20y+y^2

Solution for 100=20y+y^2 equation:

100=20y+y^2

We move all terms to the left:

100-(20y+y^2)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-y^2-20y+100=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1y^2-20y+100=0

a = -1; b = -20; c = +100;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -202-4·(-1)·100
Δ = 800
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{800}=\sqrt{400*2}=\sqrt{400}*\sqrt{2}=20\sqrt{2}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)-20\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{20-20\sqrt{2}}{-2}
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)+20\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{20+20\sqrt{2}}{-2}
