Δ = 4
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$d_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$d_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4}=2$
$d_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(16)-2}{2*1}=\frac{-18}{2}
=-9
$
$d_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(16)+2}{2*1}=\frac{-14}{2}
=-7
