8x=x2+12

Solution for 8x=x2+12 equation:

8x=x2+12

We move all terms to the left:

8x-(x2+12)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-(+x^2+12)+8x=0

We get rid of parentheses

-x^2+8x-12=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1x^2+8x-12=0

a = -1; b = 8; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 82-4·(-1)·(-12)
Δ = 16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)-4}{2*-1}=\frac{-12}{-2}
=+6
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)+4}{2*-1}=\frac{-4}{-2}
=+2
