Solution for p^2+18p-40=0 equation:



p^2+18p-40=0
a = 1; b = 18; c = -40;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 182-4·1·(-40)
Δ = 484
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{484}=22$
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(18)-22}{2*1}=\frac{-40}{2} =-20 $
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(18)+22}{2*1}=\frac{4}{2} =2 $
