s^2-15s+50
All we have to do is to write the formula down and replace the values.
as^2+bs+c=0 in our case a is 1, b is -15 and c is 50.
would result in

so +15+-sqrt( 225-200)) /2 =
so one solution is (15+5)/2 and the second solution is (15-5)/2 so x1=10 and x2=5 Let me know if you have prblems understanding it.
Thank-you.

What equation???
What you have here is an expression, and expressions can't be "solved" but they can be simplified, or, given enough data, they can be evaluated.
Factor the trinomial:

The factors will look like:
where: and
It's not too hard to see that if and , then
= and =, so, the factors of the trinomial are:
