x^2+8=204

Solution for x^2+8=204 equation:

x^2+8=204

We move all terms to the left:

x^2+8-(204)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x^2-196=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -196;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-196)
Δ = 784
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{784}=28$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-28}{2*1}=\frac{-28}{2}
=-14
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+28}{2*1}=\frac{28}{2}
=14
