Solution for 18x^2-7x-8=0 equation:



18x^2-7x-8=0
a = 18; b = -7; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -72-4·18·(-8)
Δ = 625
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{625}=25$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-7)-25}{2*18}=\frac{-18}{36} =-1/2 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-7)+25}{2*18}=\frac{32}{36} =8/9 $
