a = -30; b = 2; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 22-4·(-30)·0
Δ = 4
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4}=2$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(2)-2}{2*-30}=\frac{-4}{-60}
=1/15
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(2)+2}{2*-30}=\frac{0}{-60}
=0
