4x(x-1)=16
We move all terms to the left:
4x(x-1)-(16)=0
We multiply parentheses
4x^2-4x-16=0
a = 4; b = -4; c = -16;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -42-4·4·(-16)
Δ = 272
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{272}=\sqrt{16*17}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{17}=4\sqrt{17}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)-4\sqrt{17}}{2*4}=\frac{4-4\sqrt{17}}{8} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)+4\sqrt{17}}{2*4}=\frac{4+4\sqrt{17}}{8} $
