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

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{576}=24$
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-24}{2*6}=\frac{-12}{12}
=-1
$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+24}{2*6}=\frac{36}{12}
=3
