[tex]x^2-4x-8=0\\\\a=1;\ b=-4;\ c=-8\\\\b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-8)=16+32=48\\\\\sqrt{b^2-4ac}=\sqrt{48}=\sqrt{16\cdot3}=\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt3=4\sqrt3\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a};\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-(-4)-4\sqrt3}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{4-4\sqrt3}{2}=2-2\sqrt3\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-(-4)+4\sqrt3}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{4+4\sqrt3}{2}=2+2\sqrt3[/tex]
