a = 6; b = -20; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -202-4·6·(-1)
Δ = 424
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{424}=\sqrt{4*106}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{106}=2\sqrt{106}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)-2\sqrt{106}}{2*6}=\frac{20-2\sqrt{106}}{12}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-20)+2\sqrt{106}}{2*6}=\frac{20+2\sqrt{106}}{12}
