4w^2+2w=12

Solution for 4w^2+2w=12 equation:

4w^2+2w=12

We move all terms to the left:

4w^2+2w-(12)=0

a = 4; b = 2; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 22-4·4·(-12)
Δ = 196
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$w_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$w_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{196}=14$
$w_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(2)-14}{2*4}=\frac{-16}{8}
=-2
$
$w_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(2)+14}{2*4}=\frac{12}{8}
=1+1/2
