5x^{2}\times 2=450
Multiply x and x to get x^{2}.
10x^{2}=450
Multiply 5 and 2 to get 10.
x^{2}=\frac{450}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
x^{2}=45
Divide 450 by 10 to get 45.
x=3\sqrt{5} x=-3\sqrt{5}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
5x^{2}\times 2=450
Multiply x and x to get x^{2}.
10x^{2}=450
Multiply 5 and 2 to get 10.
10x^{2}-450=0
Subtract 450 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 10\left(-450\right)}}{2\times 10}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 10 for a, 0 for b, and -450 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 10\left(-450\right)}}{2\times 10}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-40\left(-450\right)}}{2\times 10}
Multiply -4 times 10.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{18000}}{2\times 10}
Multiply -40 times -450.
x=\frac{0±60\sqrt{5}}{2\times 10}
Take the square root of 18000.
x=\frac{0±60\sqrt{5}}{20}
Multiply 2 times 10.
x=3\sqrt{5}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±60\sqrt{5}}{20} when ± is plus.
x=-3\sqrt{5}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±60\sqrt{5}}{20} when ± is minus.
x=3\sqrt{5} x=-3\sqrt{5}
The equation is now solved.
