20x/8x^2+(-14x)/8x^2-8+6=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

20x/8x^2+(-14x)/8x^2-2=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


20x+(-14x)-2*8x^2=0

Wy multiply elements

-16x^2+20x+(-14x)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-16x^2+20x-14x=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-16x^2+6x=0

a = -16; b = 6; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 62-4·(-16)·0
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-6}{2*-16}=\frac{-12}{-32}
=3/8
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+6}{2*-16}=\frac{0}{-32}
=0
