X2+2x+x-2=8

Solution for X2+2x+x-2=8 equation:

X2+2X+X-2=8

We move all terms to the left:

X2+2X+X-2-(8)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

X^2+3X-10=0

a = 1; b = 3; c = -10;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 32-4·1·(-10)
Δ = 49
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{49}=7$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)-7}{2*1}=\frac{-10}{2}
=-5
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)+7}{2*1}=\frac{4}{2}
=2
