a^2-20a+5=0

Solution for a^2-20a+5=0 equation:

a^2-20a+5=0

a = 1; b = -20; c = +5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -202-4·1·5
Δ = 380
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{380}=\sqrt{4*95}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{95}=2\sqrt{95}$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)-2\sqrt{95}}{2*1}=\frac{20-2\sqrt{95}}{2}
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)+2\sqrt{95}}{2*1}=\frac{20+2\sqrt{95}}{2}
