t^2=8t-7

Solution for t^2=8t-7 equation:

t^2=8t-7

We move all terms to the left:

t^2-(8t-7)=0

We get rid of parentheses

t^2-8t+7=0

a = 1; b = -8; c = +7;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -82-4·1·7
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)-6}{2*1}=\frac{2}{2}
=1
$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)+6}{2*1}=\frac{14}{2}
=7
