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{-(7)-25}{2*1}=\frac{-32}{2}
=-16
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7)+25}{2*1}=\frac{18}{2}
=9
