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(-819\right)\times \frac{1449}{50}}}{2\left(-819\right)}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute -819 for a, 0 for b, and \frac{1449}{50} for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
