Solution for 2x^2-12x-240=0 equation:



2x^2-12x-240=0
a = 2; b = -12; c = -240;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -122-4·2·(-240)
Δ = 2064
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2064}=\sqrt{16*129}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{129}=4\sqrt{129}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-4\sqrt{129}}{2*2}=\frac{12-4\sqrt{129}}{4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+4\sqrt{129}}{2*2}=\frac{12+4\sqrt{129}}{4} $
