a = 16; b = 8; c = -120;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 82-4·16·(-120)
Δ = 7744
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{7744}=88$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)-88}{2*16}=\frac{-96}{32} =-3 $
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)+88}{2*16}=\frac{80}{32} =2+1/2 $
