x^{2}+2x+1+\left(x-6\right)^{2}=2x^{2}
Use binomial theorem \left(a+b\right)^{2}=a^{2}+2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x+1\right)^{2}.
x^{2}+2x+1+x^{2}-12x+36=2x^{2}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x-6\right)^{2}.
2x^{2}+2x+1-12x+36=2x^{2}
Combine x^{2} and x^{2} to get 2x^{2}.
2x^{2}-10x+1+36=2x^{2}
Combine 2x and -12x to get -10x.
2x^{2}-10x+37=2x^{2}
Add 1 and 36 to get 37.
2x^{2}-10x+37-2x^{2}=0
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides.
-10x+37=0
Combine 2x^{2} and -2x^{2} to get 0.
-10x=-37
Subtract 37 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-37}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10.
x=\frac{37}{10}
Fraction \frac{-37}{-10} can be simplified to \frac{37}{10} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
