4y+y^2=24

Solution for 4y+y^2=24 equation:

4y+y^2=24

We move all terms to the left:

4y+y^2-(24)=0

a = 1; b = 4; c = -24;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 42-4·1·(-24)
Δ = 112
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{112}=\sqrt{16*7}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{7}=4\sqrt{7}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)-4\sqrt{7}}{2*1}=\frac{-4-4\sqrt{7}}{2}
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)+4\sqrt{7}}{2*1}=\frac{-4+4\sqrt{7}}{2}
