a = -1472; b = 6; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 62-4·(-1472)·0
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$b_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$b_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$b_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-6}{2*-1472}=\frac{-12}{-2944}
=3/736
$
$b_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+6}{2*-1472}=\frac{0}{-2944}
=0
