6p-7=p^2+1

Solution for 6p-7=p^2+1 equation:

6p-7=p^2+1

We move all terms to the left:

6p-7-(p^2+1)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-p^2+6p-1-7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1p^2+6p-8=0

a = -1; b = 6; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 62-4·(-1)·(-8)
Δ = 4
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4}=2$
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-2}{2*-1}=\frac{-8}{-2}
=+4
$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+2}{2*-1}=\frac{-4}{-2}
=+2
