a = -6; b = 11; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 112-4·(-6)·0
Δ = 121
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{121}=11$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(11)-11}{2*-6}=\frac{-22}{-12}
=1+5/6
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(11)+11}{2*-6}=\frac{0}{-12}
=0
