a = 5; b = 119; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 1192-4·5·0
Δ = 14161
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{14161}=119$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(119)-119}{2*5}=\frac{-238}{10}
=-23+4/5
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(119)+119}{2*5}=\frac{0}{10}
=0
