a = 2; b = -3; c = -2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -32-4·2·(-2)
Δ = 25
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{25}=5$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)-5}{2*2}=\frac{-2}{4} =-1/2 $
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)+5}{2*2}=\frac{8}{4} =2 $
