Solution for x(20-x)2=50 equation:



x(20-x)2=50
We move all terms to the left:
x(20-x)2-(50)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
x(-1x+20)2-50=0
We multiply parentheses
-2x^2+40x-50=0
a = -2; b = 40; c = -50;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 402-4·(-2)·(-50)
Δ = 1200
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1200}=\sqrt{400*3}=\sqrt{400}*\sqrt{3}=20\sqrt{3}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(40)-20\sqrt{3}}{2*-2}=\frac{-40-20\sqrt{3}}{-4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(40)+20\sqrt{3}}{2*-2}=\frac{-40+20\sqrt{3}}{-4} $
