x(x-6)=15
We move all terms to the left:
x(x-6)-(15)=0
We multiply parentheses
x^2-6x-15=0
a = 1; b = -6; c = -15;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -62-4·1·(-15)
Δ = 96
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:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{96}=\sqrt{16*6}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{6}=4\sqrt{6}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)-4\sqrt{6}}{2*1}=\frac{6-4\sqrt{6}}{2} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-6)+4\sqrt{6}}{2*1}=\frac{6+4\sqrt{6}}{2} $
