v2-v-8=0

Solution for v2-v-8=0 equation:

v2-v-8=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

v^2-1v-8=0

a = 1; b = -1; c = -8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·1·(-8)
Δ = 33
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$v_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$v_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$v_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-\sqrt{33}}{2*1}=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}}{2}
$
$v_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{33}}{2*1}=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}}{2}
