\sqrt{x}=3.14x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
\left(\sqrt{x}\right)^{2}=\left(3.14x\right)^{2}
Square both sides of the equation.
x=\left(3.14x\right)^{2}
Calculate \sqrt{x} to the power of 2 and get x.
x=3.14^{2}x^{2}
Expand \left(3.14x\right)^{2}.
x=9.8596x^{2}
Calculate 3.14 to the power of 2 and get 9.8596.
x-9.8596x^{2}=0
Subtract 9.8596x^{2} from both sides.
x\left(1-9.8596x\right)=0
Factor out x.
x=0 x=\frac{2500}{24649}
To find equation solutions, solve x=0 and 1-\frac{24649x}{2500}=0.
\frac{\sqrt{0}}{0}=3.14
Substitute 0 for x in the equation \frac{\sqrt{x}}{x}=3.14. The expression is undefined.
\frac{\sqrt{\frac{2500}{24649}}}{\frac{2500}{24649}}=3.14
Substitute \frac{2500}{24649} for x in the equation \frac{\sqrt{x}}{x}=3.14.
\frac{157}{50}=3.14
Simplify. The value x=\frac{2500}{24649} satisfies the equation.
x=\frac{2500}{24649}
Equation \sqrt{x}=\frac{157x}{50} has a unique solution.
