m(m+7)=-12

Solution for m(m+7)=-12 equation:

m(m+7)=-12

We move all terms to the left:

m(m+7)-(-12)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

m(m+7)+12=0

We multiply parentheses

m^2+7m+12=0

a = 1; b = 7; c = +12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 72-4·1·12
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7)-1}{2*1}=\frac{-8}{2}
=-4
$
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7)+1}{2*1}=\frac{-6}{2}
=-3
