a = 2; b = 6; c = +1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 62-4·2·1
Δ = 28
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{28}=\sqrt{4*7}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{7}=2\sqrt{7}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-2\sqrt{7}}{2*2}=\frac{-6-2\sqrt{7}}{4}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+2\sqrt{7}}{2*2}=\frac{-6+2\sqrt{7}}{4}
