Δ = 2809
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2809}=53$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(59)-53}{2*8}=\frac{-112}{16}
=-7
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(59)+53}{2*8}=\frac{-6}{16}
=-3/8
