4x^{2}-4x+1+x^{2}-10x-5-x+4=0
Calculate 1 to the power of 2 and get 1.
5x^{2}-4x+1-10x-5-x+4=0
Combine 4x^{2} and x^{2} to get 5x^{2}.
5x^{2}-14x+1-5-x+4=0
Combine -4x and -10x to get -14x.
5x^{2}-14x-4-x+4=0
Subtract 5 from 1 to get -4.
5x^{2}-15x-4+4=0
Combine -14x and -x to get -15x.
5x^{2}-15x=0
Add -4 and 4 to get 0.
x\left(5x-15\right)=0
Factor out x.
x=0 x=3
To find equation solutions, solve x=0 and 5x-15=0.
4x^{2}-4x+1+x^{2}-10x-5-x+4=0
Calculate 1 to the power of 2 and get 1.
5x^{2}-4x+1-10x-5-x+4=0
Combine 4x^{2} and x^{2} to get 5x^{2}.
5x^{2}-14x+1-5-x+4=0
Combine -4x and -10x to get -14x.
5x^{2}-14x-4-x+4=0
Subtract 5 from 1 to get -4.
5x^{2}-15x-4+4=0
Combine -14x and -x to get -15x.
5x^{2}-15x=0
Add -4 and 4 to get 0.
x=\frac{-\left(-15\right)±\sqrt{\left(-15\right)^{2}}}{2\times 5}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 5 for a, -15 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{-\left(-15\right)±15}{2\times 5}
Take the square root of \left(-15\right)^{2}.
x=\frac{15±15}{2\times 5}
The opposite of -15 is 15.
x=\frac{15±15}{10}
Multiply 2 times 5.
x=\frac{30}{10}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{15±15}{10} when ± is plus. Add 15 to 15.
x=3
Divide 30 by 10.
x=\frac{0}{10}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{15±15}{10} when ± is minus. Subtract 15 from 15.
x=0
Divide 0 by 10.
x=3 x=0
The equation is now solved.
4x^{2}-4x+1+x^{2}-10x-5-x+4=0
Calculate 1 to the power of 2 and get 1.
5x^{2}-4x+1-10x-5-x+4=0
Combine 4x^{2} and x^{2} to get 5x^{2}.
5x^{2}-14x+1-5-x+4=0
Combine -4x and -10x to get -14x.
5x^{2}-14x-4-x+4=0
Subtract 5 from 1 to get -4.
5x^{2}-15x-4+4=0
Combine -14x and -x to get -15x.
5x^{2}-15x=0
Add -4 and 4 to get 0.
\frac{5x^{2}-15x}{5}=\frac{0}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x^{2}+\left(-\frac{15}{5}\right)x=\frac{0}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
x^{2}-3x=\frac{0}{5}
Divide -15 by 5.
x^{2}-3x=0
Divide 0 by 5.
x^{2}-3x+\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}=\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}
Divide -3, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get -\frac{3}{2}. Then add the square of -\frac{3}{2} to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.
x^{2}-3x+\frac{9}{4}=\frac{9}{4}
Square -\frac{3}{2} by squaring both the numerator and the denominator of the fraction.
\left(x-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{9}{4}
Factor x^{2}-3x+\frac{9}{4}. In general, when x^{2}+bx+c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as \left(x+\frac{b}{2}\right)^{2}.
\sqrt{\left(x-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{3}{2} x-\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}
Simplify.
x=3 x=0
Add \frac{3}{2} to both sides of the equation.
