Multiply -4 times 100000.
x=\frac{-\left(-4999001\right)±\sqrt{24990010998001-9000000}}{2\times 100000}
Multiply -400000 times 22.5.
x=\frac{-\left(-4999001\right)±\sqrt{24990001998001}}{2\times 100000}
Add 24990010998001 to -9000000.
x=\frac{4999001±\sqrt{24990001998001}}{2\times 100000}
The opposite of -4999001 is 4999001.
x=\frac{4999001±\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000}
Multiply 2 times 100000.
x=\frac{\sqrt{24990001998001}+4999001}{200000}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{4999001±\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000} when ± is plus. Add 4999001 to \sqrt{24990001998001}.
x=\frac{4999001-\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{4999001±\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000} when ± is minus. Subtract \sqrt{24990001998001} from 4999001.
x=\frac{\sqrt{24990001998001}+4999001}{200000} x=\frac{4999001-\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000}
The equation is now solved.
100000x^{2}-4999001x+22.5=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 100000.
100000x^{2}-4999001x=-22.5
Subtract 22.5 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{100000x^{2}-4999001x}{100000}=-\frac{22.5}{100000}
Divide both sides by 100000.
x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x=-\frac{22.5}{100000}
Dividing by 100000 undoes the multiplication by 100000.
x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x=-0.000225
Divide -22.5 by 100000.
x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x+\left(-\frac{4999001}{200000}\right)^{2}=-0.000225+\left(-\frac{4999001}{200000}\right)^{2}
Divide -\frac{4999001}{100000}, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get -\frac{4999001}{200000}. Then add the square of -\frac{4999001}{200000} to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.
x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x+\frac{24990010998001}{40000000000}=-0.000225+\frac{24990010998001}{40000000000}
Square -\frac{4999001}{200000} by squaring both the numerator and the denominator of the fraction.
x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x+\frac{24990010998001}{40000000000}=\frac{24990001998001}{40000000000}
Add -0.000225 to \frac{24990010998001}{40000000000} by finding a common denominator and adding the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.
\left(x-\frac{4999001}{200000}\right)^{2}=\frac{24990001998001}{40000000000}
Factor x^{2}-\frac{4999001}{100000}x+\frac{24990010998001}{40000000000}. In general, when x^{2}+bx+c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as \left(x+\frac{b}{2}\right)^{2}.
\sqrt{\left(x-\frac{4999001}{200000}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{24990001998001}{40000000000}}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x-\frac{4999001}{200000}=\frac{\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000} x-\frac{4999001}{200000}=-\frac{\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000}
Simplify.
x=\frac{\sqrt{24990001998001}+4999001}{200000} x=\frac{4999001-\sqrt{24990001998001}}{200000}
Add \frac{4999001}{200000} to both sides of the equation.
