k2+4k=45

Solution for k2+4k=45 equation:

k2+4k=45

We move all terms to the left:

k2+4k-(45)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

k^2+4k-45=0

a = 1; b = 4; c = -45;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 42-4·1·(-45)
Δ = 196
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{196}=14$
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)-14}{2*1}=\frac{-18}{2}
=-9
$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)+14}{2*1}=\frac{10}{2}
=5
