x^{2}+3=14\times 2
Multiply both sides by 2.
x^{2}+3=28
Multiply 14 and 2 to get 28.
x^{2}+3-28=0
Subtract 28 from both sides.
x^{2}-25=0
Subtract 28 from 3 to get -25.
\left(x-5\right)\left(x+5\right)=0
Consider x^{2}-25. Rewrite x^{2}-25 as x^{2}-5^{2}. The difference of squares can be factored using the rule: a^{2}-b^{2}=\left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right).
x=5 x=-5
To find equation solutions, solve x-5=0 and x+5=0.
x^{2}+3=14\times 2
Multiply both sides by 2.
x^{2}+3=28
Multiply 14 and 2 to get 28.
x^{2}=28-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
x^{2}=25
Subtract 3 from 28 to get 25.
x=5 x=-5
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}+3=14\times 2
Multiply both sides by 2.
x^{2}+3=28
Multiply 14 and 2 to get 28.
x^{2}+3-28=0
Subtract 28 from both sides.
x^{2}-25=0
Subtract 28 from 3 to get -25.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-25\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -25 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-25\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{100}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -25.
x=\frac{0±10}{2}
Take the square root of 100.
x=5
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±10}{2} when ± is plus. Divide 10 by 2.
x=-5
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±10}{2} when ± is minus. Divide -10 by 2.
x=5 x=-5
The equation is now solved.
