16x2-13x-2=0

Solution for 16x2-13x-2=0 equation:

16x^2-13x-2=0

a = 16; b = -13; c = -2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -132-4·16·(-2)
Δ = 297
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{297}=\sqrt{9*33}=\sqrt{9}*\sqrt{33}=3\sqrt{33}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-13)-3\sqrt{33}}{2*16}=\frac{13-3\sqrt{33}}{32}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-13)+3\sqrt{33}}{2*16}=\frac{13+3\sqrt{33}}{32}
