a = 2; b = -5; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -52-4·2·(-12)
Δ = 121
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$u_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$u_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{121}=11$
$u_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)-11}{2*2}=\frac{-6}{4} =-1+1/2 $
$u_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)+11}{2*2}=\frac{16}{4} =4 $
