Solution for -20=(h+4)(h-4) equation:



-20=(h+4)(h-4)
We move all terms to the left:
-20-((h+4)(h-4))=0
We use the square of the difference formula
h^2+16-20=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
h^2-4=0
a = 1; b = 0; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-4)
Δ = 16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$h_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$h_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$h_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4}{2*1}=\frac{-4}{2} =-2 $
$h_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4}{2*1}=\frac{4}{2} =2 $
