Solution for 12x^2-16x-15=0 equation:



12x^2-16x-15=0
a = 12; b = -16; c = -15;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -162-4·12·(-15)
Δ = 976
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{976}=\sqrt{16*61}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{61}=4\sqrt{61}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)-4\sqrt{61}}{2*12}=\frac{16-4\sqrt{61}}{24} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)+4\sqrt{61}}{2*12}=\frac{16+4\sqrt{61}}{24} $
