s^2-2s=3

Solution for s^2-2s=3 equation:

s^2-2s=3

We move all terms to the left:

s^2-2s-(3)=0

a = 1; b = -2; c = -3;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·1·(-3)
Δ = 16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$s_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$s_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$s_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-4}{2*1}=\frac{-2}{2}
=-1
$
$s_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+4}{2*1}=\frac{6}{2}
=3
