4x^{2}-1900=0
Combine 3x^{2} and x^{2} to get 4x^{2}.
4x^{2}=1900
Add 1900 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x^{2}=\frac{1900}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x^{2}=475
Divide 1900 by 4 to get 475.
x=5\sqrt{19} x=-5\sqrt{19}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
4x^{2}-1900=0
Combine 3x^{2} and x^{2} to get 4x^{2}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 4\left(-1900\right)}}{2\times 4}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 4 for a, 0 for b, and -1900 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 4\left(-1900\right)}}{2\times 4}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-16\left(-1900\right)}}{2\times 4}
Multiply -4 times 4.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{30400}}{2\times 4}
Multiply -16 times -1900.
x=\frac{0±40\sqrt{19}}{2\times 4}
Take the square root of 30400.
x=\frac{0±40\sqrt{19}}{8}
Multiply 2 times 4.
x=5\sqrt{19}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±40\sqrt{19}}{8} when ± is plus.
x=-5\sqrt{19}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±40\sqrt{19}}{8} when ± is minus.
x=5\sqrt{19} x=-5\sqrt{19}
The equation is now solved.
