n^2+8n+12=4

Solution for n^2+8n+12=4 equation:

n^2+8n+12=4

We move all terms to the left:

n^2+8n+12-(4)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

n^2+8n+8=0

a = 1; b = 8; c = +8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 82-4·1·8
Δ = 32
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16*2}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{2}=4\sqrt{2}$
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)-4\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{-8-4\sqrt{2}}{2}
$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)+4\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{-8+4\sqrt{2}}{2}
