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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{112}=\sqrt{16*7}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{7}=4\sqrt{7}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{7}}{2*-2}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{7}}{-4} =-\frac{4\sqrt{7}}{-4} =-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{-1} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{7}}{2*-2}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{7}}{-4} =\frac{4\sqrt{7}}{-4} =\frac{\sqrt{7}}{-1} $
