Δ = 164
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{164}=\sqrt{4*41}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{41}=2\sqrt{41}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)-2\sqrt{41}}{2*-2}=\frac{-10-2\sqrt{41}}{-4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(10)+2\sqrt{41}}{2*-2}=\frac{-10+2\sqrt{41}}{-4} $
