a = 3; b = -1; c = -26;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -12-4·3·(-26)
Δ = 313
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)-\sqrt{313}}{2*3}=\frac{1-\sqrt{313}}{6}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{313}}{2*3}=\frac{1+\sqrt{313}}{6}
