Solution for 8x2-12x-4=0 equation:



8x^2-12x-4=0
a = 8; b = -12; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -122-4·8·(-4)
Δ = 272
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{272}=\sqrt{16*17}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{17}=4\sqrt{17}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-4\sqrt{17}}{2*8}=\frac{12-4\sqrt{17}}{16} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+4\sqrt{17}}{2*8}=\frac{12+4\sqrt{17}}{16} $
