a = 1; b = -6; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -62-4·1·0
Δ = 36
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{36}=6$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)-6}{2*1}=\frac{0}{2} =0 $
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)+6}{2*1}=\frac{12}{2} =6 $
