Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -142-4·1·45
Δ = 16
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-14)-4}{2*1}=\frac{10}{2}
=5
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-14)+4}{2*1}=\frac{18}{2}
=9
