2x^{2}=\frac{9}{6}
Combine x^{2} and x^{2} to get 2x^{2}.
2x^{2}=\frac{3}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{9}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
x^{2}=\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x^{2}=\frac{3}{2\times 2}
Express \frac{\frac{3}{2}}{2} as a single fraction.
x^{2}=\frac{3}{4}
Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
2x^{2}=\frac{9}{6}
Combine x^{2} and x^{2} to get 2x^{2}.
2x^{2}=\frac{3}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{9}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
2x^{2}-\frac{3}{2}=0
Subtract \frac{3}{2} from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 2\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)}}{2\times 2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 2 for a, 0 for b, and -\frac{3}{2} for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 2\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)}}{2\times 2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-8\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)}}{2\times 2}
Multiply -4 times 2.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{12}}{2\times 2}
Multiply -8 times -\frac{3}{2}.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{3}}{2\times 2}
Take the square root of 12.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{3}}{4}
Multiply 2 times 2.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{3}}{4} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{3}}{4} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
The equation is now solved.
