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{-(-2.5)-\sqrt{86.25}}{2*-1}=\frac{2.5-\sqrt{86.25}}{-2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2.5)+\sqrt{86.25}}{2*-1}=\frac{2.5+\sqrt{86.25}}{-2} $
