4y(y-8)=-20
We move all terms to the left:
4y(y-8)-(-20)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
4y(y-8)+20=0
We multiply parentheses
4y^2-32y+20=0
a = 4; b = -32; c = +20;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -322-4·4·20
Δ = 704
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{704}=\sqrt{64*11}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{11}=8\sqrt{11}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-32)-8\sqrt{11}}{2*4}=\frac{32-8\sqrt{11}}{8} $
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-32)+8\sqrt{11}}{2*4}=\frac{32+8\sqrt{11}}{8} $
