You can put this solution on YOUR website!
D=\"b%5E2-4ac=162-4%281%29%284%29=1-16=-15\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "so since D<0 we will have 2 complex solutions

Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc)
Quadratic equation \"ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc=0\" (in our case \"1x%5E2%2B1x%2B4+=+0\") has the following solutons:
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"x%5B12%5D+=+%28b%2B-sqrt%28+b%5E2-4ac+%29%29%2F2%5Ca\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " For these solutions to exist, the discriminant \"b%5E2-4ac\" should not be a negative number.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " First, we need to compute the discriminant \"b%5E2-4ac\": \"b%5E2-4ac=%281%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A4=-15\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " The discriminant -15 is less than zero. That means that there are no solutions among real numbers.

\n" ); document.write( " If you are a student of advanced school algebra and are aware about imaginary numbers, read on.

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " In the field of imaginary numbers, the square root of -15 is + or - \"sqrt%28+15%29+=+3.87298334620742\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " The solution is , or
