a = 1; b = -15; c = -50;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -152-4·1·(-50)
Δ = 425
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{425}=\sqrt{25*17}=\sqrt{25}*\sqrt{17}=5\sqrt{17}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-15)-5\sqrt{17}}{2*1}=\frac{15-5\sqrt{17}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-15)+5\sqrt{17}}{2*1}=\frac{15+5\sqrt{17}}{2} $
