We move all terms to the left:
2x(10-x)-(4)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
2x(-1x+10)-4=0
We multiply parentheses
-2x^2+20x-4=0
a = -2; b = 20; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 202-4·(-2)·(-4)
Δ = 368
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{368}=\sqrt{16*23}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{23}=4\sqrt{23}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(20)-4\sqrt{23}}{2*-2}=\frac{-20-4\sqrt{23}}{-4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(20)+4\sqrt{23}}{2*-2}=\frac{-20+4\sqrt{23}}{-4} $
