The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{25}=5$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-13)-5}{2*1}=\frac{8}{2}
=4
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-13)+5}{2*1}=\frac{18}{2}
=9
