a = 15; b = -180; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -1802-4·15·(-4)
Δ = 32640
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{32640}=\sqrt{64*510}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{510}=8\sqrt{510}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-180)-8\sqrt{510}}{2*15}=\frac{180-8\sqrt{510}}{30} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-180)+8\sqrt{510}}{2*15}=\frac{180+8\sqrt{510}}{30} $
