1936\times 0.01=0.02x^{2}
Calculate 44 to the power of 2 and get 1936.
19.36=0.02x^{2}
Multiply 1936 and 0.01 to get 19.36.
0.02x^{2}=19.36
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x^{2}=\frac{19.36}{0.02}
Divide both sides by 0.02.
x^{2}=\frac{1936}{2}
Expand \frac{19.36}{0.02} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
x^{2}=968
Divide 1936 by 2 to get 968.
x=22\sqrt{2} x=-22\sqrt{2}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
1936\times 0.01=0.02x^{2}
Calculate 44 to the power of 2 and get 1936.
19.36=0.02x^{2}
Multiply 1936 and 0.01 to get 19.36.
0.02x^{2}=19.36
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
0.02x^{2}-19.36=0
Subtract 19.36 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 0.02\left(-19.36\right)}}{2\times 0.02}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 0.02 for a, 0 for b, and -19.36 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 0.02\left(-19.36\right)}}{2\times 0.02}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-0.08\left(-19.36\right)}}{2\times 0.02}
Multiply -4 times 0.02.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{1.5488}}{2\times 0.02}
Multiply -0.08 times -19.36 by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.
x=\frac{0±\frac{22\sqrt{2}}{25}}{2\times 0.02}
Take the square root of 1.5488.
x=\frac{0±\frac{22\sqrt{2}}{25}}{0.04}
Multiply 2 times 0.02.
x=22\sqrt{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{22\sqrt{2}}{25}}{0.04} when ± is plus.
x=-22\sqrt{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{22\sqrt{2}}{25}}{0.04} when ± is minus.
x=22\sqrt{2} x=-22\sqrt{2}
The equation is now solved.
