a = 5; b = -60; c = +120;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -602-4·5·120
Δ = 1200
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1200}=\sqrt{400*3}=\sqrt{400}*\sqrt{3}=20\sqrt{3}$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-60)-20\sqrt{3}}{2*5}=\frac{60-20\sqrt{3}}{10} $
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-60)+20\sqrt{3}}{2*5}=\frac{60+20\sqrt{3}}{10} $
