Δ = 32
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16*2}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{2}=4\sqrt{2}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-4\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{-6-4\sqrt{2}}{-2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+4\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{-6+4\sqrt{2}}{-2} $
