Δ = 81
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{81}=9$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-9}{2*1}=\frac{-8}{2} =-4 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+9}{2*1}=\frac{10}{2} =5 $
