The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4}=2$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)-2}{2*1}=\frac{14}{2}
=7
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)+2}{2*1}=\frac{18}{2}
=9
