x2+12x-216=0

Solution for x2+12x-216=0 equation:

x2+12x-216=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x^2+12x-216=0

a = 1; b = 12; c = -216;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 122-4·1·(-216)
Δ = 1008
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1008}=\sqrt{144*7}=\sqrt{144}*\sqrt{7}=12\sqrt{7}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(12)-12\sqrt{7}}{2*1}=\frac{-12-12\sqrt{7}}{2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(12)+12\sqrt{7}}{2*1}=\frac{-12+12\sqrt{7}}{2}
