Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 0.42-4·(-1)·220
Δ = 880.16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0.4)-\sqrt{880.16}}{2*-1}=\frac{-0.4-\sqrt{880.16}}{-2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0.4)+\sqrt{880.16}}{2*-1}=\frac{-0.4+\sqrt{880.16}}{-2}
