Can someone explain how to do this

The negative solution is -2.21 and positive solution is 12.21
Given the quadratic equation expressed as:
x^2-10x-27 = 0
Find the solution using the general formula
x^2-10x-27 = 0
x = 10±√(10)²-4(1)(-27)/2
x = 10±√100+108/2
x = 10±√208/2
x = 10±14.422/2
Simplify
x = 10+14.422/2 and x = 10-14.422/2
x = 24.422/2 and -4.422/2
x = 12.21 and -2.21
Hence the negative solution is -2.21 and positive solution is 12.21
