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

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)-1}{2*1}=\frac{-6}{2}
=-3
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)+1}{2*1}=\frac{-4}{2}
=-2
