Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -142-4·1·48
Δ = 4
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{-(-14)-2}{2*1}=\frac{12}{2}
=6
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-14)+2}{2*1}=\frac{16}{2}
=8
