Solution for x(x-2)=800 equation:



x(x-2)=800
We move all terms to the left:
x(x-2)-(800)=0
We multiply parentheses
x^2-2x-800=0
a = 1; b = -2; c = -800;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·1·(-800)
Δ = 3204
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{3204}=\sqrt{36*89}=\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{89}=6\sqrt{89}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-6\sqrt{89}}{2*1}=\frac{2-6\sqrt{89}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+6\sqrt{89}}{2*1}=\frac{2+6\sqrt{89}}{2} $
