x=\frac{-18±\sqrt{18^{2}}}{2\times \frac{199}{5}}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute \frac{199}{5} for a, 18 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{-18±18}{2\times \frac{199}{5}}

x=\frac{-18±18}{\frac{398}{5}}
Multiply 2 times \frac{199}{5}.
x=\frac{0}{\frac{398}{5}}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{-18±18}{\frac{398}{5}} when ± is plus. Add -18 to 18.

Factor x^{2}+\frac{90}{199}x+\frac{2025}{39601}. 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{45}{199}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{2025}{39601}}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x+\frac{45}{199}=\frac{45}{199} x+\frac{45}{199}=-\frac{45}{199}
Simplify.
x=0 x=-\frac{90}{199}
Subtract \frac{45}{199} from both sides of the equation.
