Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -162-4·2·8
Δ = 192
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{192}=\sqrt{64*3}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{3}=8\sqrt{3}$
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)-8\sqrt{3}}{2*2}=\frac{16-8\sqrt{3}}{4} $
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-16)+8\sqrt{3}}{2*2}=\frac{16+8\sqrt{3}}{4} $
