a = -1; b = 7.2; c = -4.8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 7.22-4·(-1)·(-4.8)
Δ = 32.64
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7.2)-\sqrt{32.64}}{2*-1}=\frac{-7.2-\sqrt{32.64}}{-2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(7.2)+\sqrt{32.64}}{2*-1}=\frac{-7.2+\sqrt{32.64}}{-2} $
