y2-4y=6

Solution for y2-4y=6 equation:

y2-4y=6

We move all terms to the left:

y2-4y-(6)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

y^2-4y-6=0

a = 1; b = -4; c = -6;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -42-4·1·(-6)
Δ = 40
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{40}=\sqrt{4*10}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{10}=2\sqrt{10}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)-2\sqrt{10}}{2*1}=\frac{4-2\sqrt{10}}{2}
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)+2\sqrt{10}}{2*1}=\frac{4+2\sqrt{10}}{2}
