9y+(-4y)-4*36y^2=0

Wy multiply elements

-144y^2+9y+(-4y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-144y^2+9y-4y=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-144y^2+5y=0

a = -144; b = 5; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 52-4·(-144)·0
Δ = 25
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{25}=5$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)-5}{2*-144}=\frac{-10}{-288}
=5/144
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)+5}{2*-144}=\frac{0}{-288}
=0
