Solve 0^2=72^2+2*x*1440

$${ 0 }^{ 2 } = { 72 }^{ 2 } +2 \times x \times 1440$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{9}{5} = -1\frac{4}{5} = -1.8$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Calculate 0 to the power of 2 and get 0.

$$0=72^{2}+2x\times 1440$$

Calculate 72 to the power of 2 and get 5184.

$$0=5184+2x\times 1440$$

Multiply 2 and 1440 to get 2880.

$$0=5184+2880x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$5184+2880x=0$$

Subtract 5184 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$2880x=-5184$$

Divide both sides by 2880.

$$x=\frac{-5184}{2880}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-5184}{2880} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 576.

$$x=-\frac{9}{5}$$
