-3x^2+48x-136=0
a = -3; b = 48; c = -136;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 482-4·(-3)·(-136)
Δ = 672
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{672}=\sqrt{16*42}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{42}=4\sqrt{42}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(48)-4\sqrt{42}}{2*-3}=\frac{-48-4\sqrt{42}}{-6} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(48)+4\sqrt{42}}{2*-3}=\frac{-48+4\sqrt{42}}{-6} $
