We move all terms to the left:
x2-6x-8-(6)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
x^2-6x-14=0
a = 1; b = -6; c = -14;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -62-4·1·(-14)
Δ = 92
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{92}=\sqrt{4*23}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{23}=2\sqrt{23}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)-2\sqrt{23}}{2*1}=\frac{6-2\sqrt{23}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)+2\sqrt{23}}{2*1}=\frac{6+2\sqrt{23}}{2} $
