Δ = 124
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{124}=\sqrt{4*31}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{31}=2\sqrt{31}$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)-2\sqrt{31}}{2*1}=\frac{-8-2\sqrt{31}}{2} $
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)+2\sqrt{31}}{2*1}=\frac{-8+2\sqrt{31}}{2} $
