x^{2}=6-175
Subtract 175 from both sides.
x^{2}=-169
Subtract 175 from 6 to get -169.
x=13i x=-13i
The equation is now solved.
x^{2}+175-6=0
Subtract 6 from both sides.
x^{2}+169=0
Subtract 6 from 175 to get 169.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 169}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 169 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 169}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-676}}{2}
Multiply -4 times 169.
x=\frac{0±26i}{2}
Take the square root of -676.
x=13i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±26i}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-13i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±26i}{2} when ± is minus.
x=13i x=-13i
The equation is now solved.
