p2-7=p

Solution for p2-7=p equation:

p2-7=p

We move all terms to the left:

p2-7-(p)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

p^2-1p-7=0

a = 1; b = -1; c = -7;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·1·(-7)
Δ = 29
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$p_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-\sqrt{29}}{2*1}=\frac{1-\sqrt{29}}{2}
$
$p_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{29}}{2*1}=\frac{1+\sqrt{29}}{2}
