10x^2-6x-8=0

Solution for 10x^2-6x-8=0 equation:

10x^2-6x-8=0

a = 10; b = -6; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -62-4·10·(-8)
Δ = 356
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{356}=\sqrt{4*89}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{89}=2\sqrt{89}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)-2\sqrt{89}}{2*10}=\frac{6-2\sqrt{89}}{20}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)+2\sqrt{89}}{2*10}=\frac{6+2\sqrt{89}}{20}
