w^2+3w=28

Solution for w^2+3w=28 equation:

w^2+3w=28

We move all terms to the left:

w^2+3w-(28)=0

a = 1; b = 3; c = -28;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 32-4·1·(-28)
Δ = 121
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$w_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$w_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{121}=11$
$w_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)-11}{2*1}=\frac{-14}{2}
=-7
$
$w_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)+11}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2}
=4
