x^{2}+44=-x^{2}
Add 25 and 19 to get 44.
x^{2}+44+x^{2}=0
Add x^{2} to both sides.
2x^{2}+44=0
Combine x^{2} and x^{2} to get 2x^{2}.
2x^{2}=-44
Subtract 44 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x^{2}=\frac{-44}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x^{2}=-22
Divide -44 by 2 to get -22.
x=\sqrt{22}i x=-\sqrt{22}i
The equation is now solved.
x^{2}+44=-x^{2}
Add 25 and 19 to get 44.
x^{2}+44+x^{2}=0
Add x^{2} to both sides.
2x^{2}+44=0
Combine x^{2} and x^{2} to get 2x^{2}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 2\times 44}}{2\times 2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 2 for a, 0 for b, and 44 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 2\times 44}}{2\times 2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-8\times 44}}{2\times 2}
Multiply -4 times 2.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-352}}{2\times 2}
Multiply -8 times 44.
x=\frac{0±4\sqrt{22}i}{2\times 2}
Take the square root of -352.
x=\frac{0±4\sqrt{22}i}{4}
Multiply 2 times 2.
x=\sqrt{22}i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±4\sqrt{22}i}{4} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{22}i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±4\sqrt{22}i}{4} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{22}i x=-\sqrt{22}i
The equation is now solved.
