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

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{2916}=54$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-54}{2*3}=\frac{-54}{6}
=-9
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+54}{2*3}=\frac{54}{6}
=9
