2a^2=7a=16

Solution for 2a^2=7a=16 equation:

2a^2=7a=16

We move all terms to the left:

2a^2-(7a)=0

a = 2; b = -7; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -72-4·2·0
Δ = 49
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{49}=7$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-7)-7}{2*2}=\frac{0}{4}
=0
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-7)+7}{2*2}=\frac{14}{4}
=3+1/2
