Δ = 468
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{468}=\sqrt{36*13}=\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{13}=6\sqrt{13}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-6\sqrt{13}}{2*3}=\frac{12-6\sqrt{13}}{6} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+6\sqrt{13}}{2*3}=\frac{12+6\sqrt{13}}{6} $
