a^2+10a=50

Solution for a^2+10a=50 equation:

a^2+10a=50

We move all terms to the left:

a^2+10a-(50)=0

a = 1; b = 10; c = -50;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 102-4·1·(-50)
Δ = 300
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{300}=\sqrt{100*3}=\sqrt{100}*\sqrt{3}=10\sqrt{3}$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)-10\sqrt{3}}{2*1}=\frac{-10-10\sqrt{3}}{2}
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)+10\sqrt{3}}{2*1}=\frac{-10+10\sqrt{3}}{2}
