3p^2-2p=8

Solution for 3p^2-2p=8 equation:

3p^2-2p=8

We move all terms to the left:

3p^2-2p-(8)=0

a = 3; b = -2; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·3·(-8)
Δ = 100
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{100}=10$
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-10}{2*3}=\frac{-8}{6}
=-1+1/3
$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+10}{2*3}=\frac{12}{6}
=2
