We get rid of parentheses

-72x^2+12x-15x=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-72x^2-3x=0

a = -72; b = -3; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -32-4·(-72)·0
Δ = 9
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{9}=3$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)-3}{2*-72}=\frac{0}{-144}
=0
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)+3}{2*-72}=\frac{6}{-144}
=-1/24
