9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{5}\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}
Divide 2\sqrt{34} by 10 to get \frac{1}{5}\sqrt{34}.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{2}\left(\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}
Expand \left(\frac{1}{5}\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{1}{25}\left(\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}
Calculate \frac{1}{5} to the power of 2 and get \frac{1}{25}.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{1}{25}\times 34x^{2}
The square of \sqrt{34} is 34.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{34}{25}x^{2}
Multiply \frac{1}{25} and 34 to get \frac{34}{25}.
9x^{2}=\frac{43}{25}x^{2}
Combine 0.36x^{2} and \frac{34}{25}x^{2} to get \frac{43}{25}x^{2}.
9x^{2}-\frac{43}{25}x^{2}=0
Subtract \frac{43}{25}x^{2} from both sides.
\frac{182}{25}x^{2}=0
Combine 9x^{2} and -\frac{43}{25}x^{2} to get \frac{182}{25}x^{2}.
x^{2}=0
Multiply both sides by \frac{25}{182}, the reciprocal of \frac{182}{25}. Anything times zero gives zero.
x=0 x=0
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x=0
The equation is now solved. Solutions are the same.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{5}\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}
Divide 2\sqrt{34} by 10 to get \frac{1}{5}\sqrt{34}.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{2}\left(\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}

9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{1}{25}\left(\sqrt{34}\right)^{2}x^{2}
Calculate \frac{1}{5} to the power of 2 and get \frac{1}{25}.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{1}{25}\times 34x^{2}
The square of \sqrt{34} is 34.
9x^{2}=0.36x^{2}+\frac{34}{25}x^{2}
Multiply \frac{1}{25} and 34 to get \frac{34}{25}.
9x^{2}=\frac{43}{25}x^{2}
Combine 0.36x^{2} and \frac{34}{25}x^{2} to get \frac{43}{25}x^{2}.
9x^{2}-\frac{43}{25}x^{2}=0
Subtract \frac{43}{25}x^{2} from both sides.
\frac{182}{25}x^{2}=0
Combine 9x^{2} and -\frac{43}{25}x^{2} to get \frac{182}{25}x^{2}.
x^{2}=0
Multiply both sides by \frac{25}{182}, the reciprocal of \frac{182}{25}. Anything times zero gives zero.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±0}{2}
Take the square root of 0^{2}.
x=0
Divide 0 by 2.
