y2+4y-7=5

Solution for y2+4y-7=5 equation:

y2+4y-7=5

We move all terms to the left:

y2+4y-7-(5)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

y^2+4y-12=0

a = 1; b = 4; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 42-4·1·(-12)
Δ = 64
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{64}=8$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)-8}{2*1}=\frac{-12}{2}
=-6
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(4)+8}{2*1}=\frac{4}{2}
=2
