4x^2+10x-144=0

Solution for 4x^2+10x-144=0 equation:

4x^2+10x-144=0

a = 4; b = 10; c = -144;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 102-4·4·(-144)
Δ = 2404
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2404}=\sqrt{4*601}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{601}=2\sqrt{601}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)-2\sqrt{601}}{2*4}=\frac{-10-2\sqrt{601}}{8}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)+2\sqrt{601}}{2*4}=\frac{-10+2\sqrt{601}}{8}
