Solution for k^2-12k-24=0 equation:



k^2-12k-24=0
a = 1; b = -12; c = -24;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -122-4·1·(-24)
Δ = 240
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{240}=\sqrt{16*15}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{15}=4\sqrt{15}$
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-4\sqrt{15}}{2*1}=\frac{12-4\sqrt{15}}{2} $
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+4\sqrt{15}}{2*1}=\frac{12+4\sqrt{15}}{2} $
