Solution for x2-10x-15=0 equation:



x2-10x-15=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
x^2-10x-15=0
a = 1; b = -10; c = -15;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -102-4·1·(-15)
Δ = 160
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{160}=\sqrt{16*10}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{10}=4\sqrt{10}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-10)-4\sqrt{10}}{2*1}=\frac{10-4\sqrt{10}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-10)+4\sqrt{10}}{2*1}=\frac{10+4\sqrt{10}}{2} $
