a = 150; b = -5; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -52-4·150·0
Δ = 25
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{25}=5$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)-5}{2*150}=\frac{0}{300}
=0
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)+5}{2*150}=\frac{10}{300}
=1/30
