Detail solution
This equation is of the form
ax2+bx+c=0a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
A quadratic equation can be solved using the discriminant
The roots of the quadratic equation:
x1=Db2ax_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
x2=Db2ax_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
where D=b24acD = b^2 - 4 a c is the discriminant.
Because
a=1a = 1
b=5b = -5
c=0c = 0
, then
D=b24ac=D = b^2 - 4 * a * c =
(1)140+(5)2=25\left(-1\right) 1 \cdot 4 \cdot 0 + \left(-5\right)^{2} = 25
Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1=(b+D)2ax_1 = \frac{(-b + \sqrt{D})}{2 a}
x2=(bD)2ax_2 = \frac{(-b - \sqrt{D})}{2 a}
or
x1=5x_{1} = 5
Simplify
x2=0x_{2} = 0

Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced quadratic equation
px+x2+q=0p x + x^{2} + q = 0
where
p=bap = \frac{b}{a}
p=5p = -5
q=caq = \frac{c}{a}
q=0q = 0
Vieta Formulas
x1+x2=px_{1} + x_{2} = - p
x1x2=qx_{1} x_{2} = q
x1+x2=5x_{1} + x_{2} = 5
