a = -6; b = 15; c = +1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 152-4·(-6)·1
Δ = 249
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{-(15)-\sqrt{249}}{2*-6}=\frac{-15-\sqrt{249}}{-12}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(15)+\sqrt{249}}{2*-6}=\frac{-15+\sqrt{249}}{-12}
