x^{2}=103-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
x^{2}=94
Subtract 9 from 103 to get 94.
x=\sqrt{94} x=-\sqrt{94}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}+9-103=0
Subtract 103 from both sides.
x^{2}-94=0
Subtract 103 from 9 to get -94.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-94\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -94 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-94\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{376}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -94.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{94}}{2}
Take the square root of 376.
x=\sqrt{94}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{94}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{94}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{94}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{94} x=-\sqrt{94}
The equation is now solved.
