x^{2}+295=395
Add 89 and 206 to get 295.
x^{2}+295-395=0
Subtract 395 from both sides.
x^{2}-100=0
Subtract 395 from 295 to get -100.
\left(x-10\right)\left(x+10\right)=0
Consider x^{2}-100. Rewrite x^{2}-100 as x^{2}-10^{2}. The difference of squares can be factored using the rule: a^{2}-b^{2}=\left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right).
x=10 x=-10
To find equation solutions, solve x-10=0 and x+10=0.
x^{2}+295=395
Add 89 and 206 to get 295.
x^{2}=395-295
Subtract 295 from both sides.
x^{2}=100
Subtract 295 from 395 to get 100.
x=10 x=-10
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}+295=395
Add 89 and 206 to get 295.
x^{2}+295-395=0
Subtract 395 from both sides.
x^{2}-100=0
Subtract 395 from 295 to get -100.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-100\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -100 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-100\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{400}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -100.
x=\frac{0±20}{2}
Take the square root of 400.
x=10
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±20}{2} when ± is plus. Divide 20 by 2.
x=-10
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±20}{2} when ± is minus. Divide -20 by 2.
x=10 x=-10
The equation is now solved.
