25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4\times 1000^{2}}
Multiply 355 and 200 to get 71000.
25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4\times 1000000}
Calculate 1000 to the power of 2 and get 1000000.
25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4000000}
Multiply 4 and 1000000 to get 4000000.
25=\frac{71000x^{2}}{4000000}
Express 71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4000000} as a single fraction.
25=\frac{71}{4000}x^{2}
Divide 71000x^{2} by 4000000 to get \frac{71}{4000}x^{2}.
\frac{71}{4000}x^{2}=25
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x^{2}=25\times \frac{4000}{71}
Multiply both sides by \frac{4000}{71}, the reciprocal of \frac{71}{4000}.
x^{2}=\frac{100000}{71}
Multiply 25 and \frac{4000}{71} to get \frac{100000}{71}.
x=\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71} x=-\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4\times 1000^{2}}
Multiply 355 and 200 to get 71000.
25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4\times 1000000}
Calculate 1000 to the power of 2 and get 1000000.
25=71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4000000}
Multiply 4 and 1000000 to get 4000000.
25=\frac{71000x^{2}}{4000000}
Express 71000\times \frac{x^{2}}{4000000} as a single fraction.
25=\frac{71}{4000}x^{2}
Divide 71000x^{2} by 4000000 to get \frac{71}{4000}x^{2}.
\frac{71}{4000}x^{2}=25
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{71}{4000}x^{2}-25=0
Subtract 25 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times \frac{71}{4000}\left(-25\right)}}{2\times \frac{71}{4000}}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute \frac{71}{4000} 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\times \frac{71}{4000}\left(-25\right)}}{2\times \frac{71}{4000}}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-\frac{71}{1000}\left(-25\right)}}{2\times \frac{71}{4000}}
Multiply -4 times \frac{71}{4000}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{\frac{71}{40}}}{2\times \frac{71}{4000}}
Multiply -\frac{71}{1000} times -25.
x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{710}}{20}}{2\times \frac{71}{4000}}
Take the square root of \frac{71}{40}.
x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{710}}{20}}{\frac{71}{2000}}
Multiply 2 times \frac{71}{4000}.
x=\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{710}}{20}}{\frac{71}{2000}} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{710}}{20}}{\frac{71}{2000}} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71} x=-\frac{100\sqrt{710}}{71}
The equation is now solved.
