a = 1; b = -2; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·1·(-8)
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-6}{2*1}=\frac{-4}{2} =-2 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+6}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2} =4 $
