a = 1; b = -3; c = +2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -32-4·1·2
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)-1}{2*1}=\frac{2}{2}
=1
$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-3)+1}{2*1}=\frac{4}{2}
=2
