14x+x^2=16

Solution for 14x+x^2=16 equation:

14x+x^2=16

We move all terms to the left:

14x+x^2-(16)=0

a = 1; b = 14; c = -16;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 142-4·1·(-16)
Δ = 260
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{260}=\sqrt{4*65}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{65}=2\sqrt{65}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(14)-2\sqrt{65}}{2*1}=\frac{-14-2\sqrt{65}}{2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(14)+2\sqrt{65}}{2*1}=\frac{-14+2\sqrt{65}}{2}
