This is a job for the quadratic formula. For

the solutions can be found with:


In your equation,
a = 1
b = -5
c = 35
So the solutions are:

Simplifying inside the square root:



At this point, since there is a negative number in the square root, we know that the solutions will be complex (not irrational). For complex numbers we use "i" which stand for :



Simplifying the rest we get:

Separating this into two terms and writing this in a+bi form we get:
