x^{2}=7-70
Subtract 70 from both sides.
x^{2}=-63
Subtract 70 from 7 to get -63.
x=3\sqrt{7}i x=-3\sqrt{7}i
The equation is now solved.
x^{2}+70-7=0
Subtract 7 from both sides.
x^{2}+63=0
Subtract 7 from 70 to get 63.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 63}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 63 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 63}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-252}}{2}
Multiply -4 times 63.
x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{7}i}{2}
Take the square root of -252.
x=3\sqrt{7}i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{7}i}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-3\sqrt{7}i
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±6\sqrt{7}i}{2} when ± is minus.
x=3\sqrt{7}i x=-3\sqrt{7}i
The equation is now solved.
