2x(x-1)=550

Solution for 2x(x-1)=550 equation:

2x(x-1)=550

We move all terms to the left:

2x(x-1)-(550)=0

We multiply parentheses

2x^2-2x-550=0

a = 2; b = -2; c = -550;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·2·(-550)
Δ = 4404
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4404}=\sqrt{4*1101}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{1101}=2\sqrt{1101}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-2\sqrt{1101}}{2*2}=\frac{2-2\sqrt{1101}}{4}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+2\sqrt{1101}}{2*2}=\frac{2+2\sqrt{1101}}{4}
