a = -1; b = 18; c = -5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 182-4·(-1)·(-5)
Δ = 304
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{304}=\sqrt{16*19}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{19}=4\sqrt{19}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(18)-4\sqrt{19}}{2*-1}=\frac{-18-4\sqrt{19}}{-2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(18)+4\sqrt{19}}{2*-1}=\frac{-18+4\sqrt{19}}{-2} $
