v^2-v=12

Solution for v^2-v=12 equation:

v^2-v=12

We move all terms to the left:

v^2-v-(12)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

v^2-1v-12=0

a = 1; b = -1; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·1·(-12)
Δ = 49
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$v_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$v_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{49}=7$
$v_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-7}{2*1}=\frac{-6}{2}
=-3
$
$v_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+7}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2}
=4
