p^2=48

Solution for p^2=48 equation:

p^2=48

We move all terms to the left:

p^2-(48)=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -48;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-48)
Δ = 192
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{192}=\sqrt{64*3}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{3}=8\sqrt{3}$
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-8\sqrt{3}}{2*1}=\frac{0-8\sqrt{3}}{2}
=-\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}
=-4\sqrt{3}
$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+8\sqrt{3}}{2*1}=\frac{0+8\sqrt{3}}{2}
=\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}
=4\sqrt{3}
