5t^2+10t-480=0

Solution for 5t^2+10t-480=0 equation:

5t^2+10t-480=0

a = 5; b = 10; c = -480;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 102-4·5·(-480)
Δ = 9700
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{9700}=\sqrt{100*97}=\sqrt{100}*\sqrt{97}=10\sqrt{97}$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)-10\sqrt{97}}{2*5}=\frac{-10-10\sqrt{97}}{10}
$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)+10\sqrt{97}}{2*5}=\frac{-10+10\sqrt{97}}{10}
