Quadratic equations like this one, with an x^{2} term but no x term, can still be solved using the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}, once they are put in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-1\right)\times 2299899}}{2\left(-1\right)}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute -1 for a, 0 for b, and 2299899 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-1\right)\times 2299899}}{2\left(-1\right)}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{4\times 2299899}}{2\left(-1\right)}
Multiply -4 times -1.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{9199596}}{2\left(-1\right)}
Multiply 4 times 2299899.
