$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1116}=\sqrt{36*31}=\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{31}=6\sqrt{31}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-6\sqrt{31}}{2*1.5}=\frac{0-6\sqrt{31}}{3} =-\frac{6\sqrt{31}}{3} =-2\sqrt{31} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+6\sqrt{31}}{2*1.5}=\frac{0+6\sqrt{31}}{3} =\frac{6\sqrt{31}}{3} =2\sqrt{31} $
