X2+7x+16=60

Solution for X2+7x+16=60 equation:

X2+7X+16=60

We move all terms to the left:

X2+7X+16-(60)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

X^2+7X-44=0

a = 1; b = 7; c = -44;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 72-4·1·(-44)
Δ = 225
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{225}=15$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7)-15}{2*1}=\frac{-22}{2}
=-11
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7)+15}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2}
=4
