Solution for Y=(x-4)(x+8) equation:



=(Y-4)(Y+8)
We move all terms to the left:
-((Y-4)(Y+8))=0
We multiply parentheses ..
-((+Y^2+8Y-4Y-32))=0
We calculate terms in parentheses: -((+Y^2+8Y-4Y-32)), so:
(+Y^2+8Y-4Y-32)
We get rid of parentheses
Y^2+8Y-4Y-32
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
Y^2+4Y-32
Back to the equation:
-(Y^2+4Y-32)
We get rid of parentheses
-Y^2-4Y+32=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-1Y^2-4Y+32=0
a = -1; b = -4; c = +32;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -42-4·(-1)·32
Δ = 144
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$Y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$Y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{144}=12$
$Y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)-12}{2*-1}=\frac{-8}{-2} =+4 $
$Y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)+12}{2*-1}=\frac{16}{-2} =-8 $
