Solution for y^2-8y-38=0 equation:



y^2-8y-38=0
a = 1; b = -8; c = -38;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -82-4·1·(-38)
Δ = 216
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{216}=\sqrt{36*6}=\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{6}=6\sqrt{6}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)-6\sqrt{6}}{2*1}=\frac{8-6\sqrt{6}}{2} $
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-8)+6\sqrt{6}}{2*1}=\frac{8+6\sqrt{6}}{2} $
