a = 6; b = -14; c = +1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -142-4·6·1
Δ = 172
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{172}=\sqrt{4*43}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{43}=2\sqrt{43}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-14)-2\sqrt{43}}{2*6}=\frac{14-2\sqrt{43}}{12}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-14)+2\sqrt{43}}{2*6}=\frac{14+2\sqrt{43}}{12}
