2a^2-48=-4a

Solution for 2a^2-48=-4a equation:

2a^2-48=-4a

We move all terms to the left:

2a^2-48-(-4a)=0

We get rid of parentheses

2a^2+4a-48=0

a = 2; b = 4; c = -48;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 42-4·2·(-48)
Δ = 400
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{400}=20$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)-20}{2*2}=\frac{-24}{4}
=-6
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)+20}{2*2}=\frac{16}{4}
=4
