Solve x^2+10=110

$${ x }^{ 2 } +10=110$$

Solve for x

$$x=10$$

$$x=-10$$

Steps Using Difference of Squares

Subtract 110 from both sides.

$$x^{2}+10-110=0$$

Subtract 110 from 10 to get -100.

$$x^{2}-100=0$$

Consider x^{2}-100. Rewrite x^{2}-100 as x^{2}-10^{2}. The difference of squares can be factored using the rule: a^{2}-b^{2}=\left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right).

$$\left(x-10\right)\left(x+10\right)=0$$

To find equation solutions, solve x-10=0 and x+10=0.

$$x=10 x=-10$$

Steps by Finding Square Root

Subtract 10 from both sides.

$$x^{2}=110-10$$

Subtract 10 from 110 to get 100.

$$x^{2}=100$$

Take the square root of both sides of the equation.

$$x=10 x=-10$$

Steps Using the Quadratic Formula

Subtract 110 from both sides.

$$x^{2}+10-110=0$$

Subtract 110 from 10 to get -100.

$$x^{2}-100=0$$

This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -100 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.

$$x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-100\right)}}{2}$$

Square 0.

$$x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-100\right)}}{2}$$

Multiply -4 times -100.

$$x=\frac{0±\sqrt{400}}{2}$$

Take the square root of 400.

$$x=\frac{0±20}{2}$$

Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±20}{2} when ± is plus. Divide 20 by 2.

$$x=10$$

Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±20}{2} when ± is minus. Divide -20 by 2.

$$x=-10$$

The equation is now solved.

$$x=10 x=-10$$
