Solution for (x-1)(x+1)=7 equation:



(x-1)(x+1)=7
We move all terms to the left:
(x-1)(x+1)-(7)=0
We use the square of the difference formula
x^2-1-7=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
x^2-8=0
a = 1; b = 0; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-8)
Δ = 32
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16*2}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{2}=4\sqrt{2}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{2}}{2} =-\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{2} =-2\sqrt{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{2}}{2} =\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{2} =2\sqrt{2} $
