u^2=400

Solution for u^2=400 equation:

u^2=400

We move all terms to the left:

u^2-(400)=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -400;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-400)
Δ = 1600
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$u_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$u_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1600}=40$
$u_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-40}{2*1}=\frac{-40}{2}
=-20
$
$u_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+40}{2*1}=\frac{40}{2}
=20
