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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{158400}=\sqrt{14400*11}=\sqrt{14400}*\sqrt{11}=120\sqrt{11}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(400)-120\sqrt{11}}{2*-2}=\frac{-400-120\sqrt{11}}{-4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(400)+120\sqrt{11}}{2*-2}=\frac{-400+120\sqrt{11}}{-4} $
