8y+y2=180

Solution for 8y+y2=180 equation:

8y+y2=180

We move all terms to the left:

8y+y2-(180)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

y^2+8y-180=0

a = 1; b = 8; c = -180;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 82-4·1·(-180)
Δ = 784
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{784}=28$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)-28}{2*1}=\frac{-36}{2}
=-18
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(8)+28}{2*1}=\frac{20}{2}
=10
