a = 1; b = -4; c = -5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -42-4·1·(-5)
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)-6}{2*1}=\frac{-2}{2} =-1 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-4)+6}{2*1}=\frac{10}{2} =5 $
