x  - 7*x + 5 = 0
$$\left(x^{2} - 7 x\right) + 5 = 0$$
Detail solution
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 1$$
$$b = -7$$
$$c = 5$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-7)^2 - 4 * (1) * (5) = 29

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{29}}{2} + \frac{7}{2}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{7}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}$$
Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced quadratic equation
$$p x + q + x^{2} = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -7$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = 5$$
Vieta Formulas
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = - p$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = q$$
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = 7$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = 5$$
