x^2-9=72

Solution for x^2-9=72 equation:

x^2-9=72

We move all terms to the left:

x^2-9-(72)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x^2-81=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -81;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-81)
Δ = 324
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{324}=18$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-18}{2*1}=\frac{-18}{2}
=-9
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+18}{2*1}=\frac{18}{2}
=9
