Let a=1
Let b=-8
Let c=14
and use the quadratic equation:
x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+
x+=+%288+%2B-+sqrt%28+%28-8%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A14+%29%29%2F%282%2A1%29+
x+=+%288+%2B-+sqrt%28+64-56+%29%29%2F%282%29+
x+=+%288+%2B-+sqrt%28+8%29%29%2F%282%29+
x+=+%288+%2B-+2%2Asqrt%28+2%29%29%2F%282%29+
x+=+%284+%2B-+sqrt%28+2%29%29+
