Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 162-4·3·16
Δ = 64
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{64}=8$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(16)-8}{2*3}=\frac{-24}{6}
=-4
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(16)+8}{2*3}=\frac{-8}{6}
=-1+1/3
