a = 800; b = 25; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 252-4·800·0
Δ = 625
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{625}=25$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(25)-25}{2*800}=\frac{-50}{1600}
=-1/32
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(25)+25}{2*800}=\frac{0}{1600}
=0
