Solution for m2-2m-55=-4 equation:

m2-2m-55=-4

We move all terms to the left:

m2-2m-55-(-4)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

m^2-2m-51=0

a = 1; b = -2; c = -51;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·1·(-51)
Δ = 208
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{208}=\sqrt{16*13}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{13}=4\sqrt{13}$
$m_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-4\sqrt{13}}{2*1}=\frac{2-4\sqrt{13}}{2}
$
$m_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+4\sqrt{13}}{2*1}=\frac{2+4\sqrt{13}}{2}
