3x^2-5x-12=0
a = 3; b = -5; c = -12;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -52-4·3·(-12)
Δ = 169
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{169}=13$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)-13}{2*3}=\frac{-8}{6} =-1+1/3 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-5)+13}{2*3}=\frac{18}{6} =3 $
