a = 2; b = -24; c = -14;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -242-4·2·(-14)
Δ = 688
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{688}=\sqrt{16*43}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{43}=4\sqrt{43}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-24)-4\sqrt{43}}{2*2}=\frac{24-4\sqrt{43}}{4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-24)+4\sqrt{43}}{2*2}=\frac{24+4\sqrt{43}}{4} $
