Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 32-4·2·(-35)
Δ = 289
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{289}=17$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)-17}{2*2}=\frac{-20}{4}
=-5
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)+17}{2*2}=\frac{14}{4}
=3+1/2
