(x-4);x=7

Solution for (x-4);x=7 equation:

(x-4)x=7

We move all terms to the left:

(x-4)x-(7)=0

We multiply parentheses

x^2-4x-7=0

a = 1; b = -4; c = -7;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -42-4·1·(-7)
Δ = 44
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{44}=\sqrt{4*11}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{11}=2\sqrt{11}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)-2\sqrt{11}}{2*1}=\frac{4-2\sqrt{11}}{2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)+2\sqrt{11}}{2*1}=\frac{4+2\sqrt{11}}{2}
