Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -152-4·1·1
Δ = 221
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-15)-\sqrt{221}}{2*1}=\frac{15-\sqrt{221}}{2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-15)+\sqrt{221}}{2*1}=\frac{15+\sqrt{221}}{2}
