a = 1; b = 22; c = +72;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 222-4·1·72
Δ = 196
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{196}=14$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(22)-14}{2*1}=\frac{-36}{2}
=-18
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(22)+14}{2*1}=\frac{-8}{2}
=-4
