$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{176}=\sqrt{16*11}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{11}=4\sqrt{11}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)-4\sqrt{11}}{2*1}=\frac{8-4\sqrt{11}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)+4\sqrt{11}}{2*1}=\frac{8+4\sqrt{11}}{2} $
