x^{2}=93-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
x^{2}=86
Subtract 7 from 93 to get 86.
x=\sqrt{86} x=-\sqrt{86}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}+7-93=0
Subtract 93 from both sides.
x^{2}-86=0
Subtract 93 from 7 to get -86.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-86\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -86 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-86\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{344}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -86.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{86}}{2}
Take the square root of 344.
x=\sqrt{86}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{86}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{86}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{86}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{86} x=-\sqrt{86}
The equation is now solved.
