a = 1; b = -1; c = -1482;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·1·(-1482)
Δ = 5929
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{5929}=77$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-77}{2*1}=\frac{-76}{2}
=-38
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+77}{2*1}=\frac{78}{2}
=39
