Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)-6}{2*-15}=\frac{-12}{-30} =2/5 $
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(6)+6}{2*-15}=\frac{0}{-30} =0 $
