Solution for p^2+p-4=0 equation:



p^2+p-4=0
a = 1; b = 1; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·1·(-4)
Δ = 17
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)-\sqrt{17}}{2*1}=\frac{-1-\sqrt{17}}{2} $
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)+\sqrt{17}}{2*1}=\frac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2} $
