Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 112-4·1·30
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$a_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(11)-1}{2*1}=\frac{-12}{2}
=-6
$
$a_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(11)+1}{2*1}=\frac{-10}{2}
=-5
