We get rid of parentheses
-1x^2+40x+5x-4x-200+20=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-1x^2+41x-180=0
a = -1; b = 41; c = -180;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 412-4·(-1)·(-180)
Δ = 961
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{961}=31$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(41)-31}{2*-1}=\frac{-72}{-2} =+36 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(41)+31}{2*-1}=\frac{-10}{-2} =+5 $
