x^{2}=7410
Add 7410 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\sqrt{7410} x=-\sqrt{7410}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}-7410=0
Quadratic equations like this one, with an x^{2} term but no x term, can still be solved using the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}, once they are put in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-7410\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -7410 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-7410\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{29640}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -7410.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{7410}}{2}
Take the square root of 29640.
x=\sqrt{7410}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{7410}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{7410}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{7410}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{7410} x=-\sqrt{7410}
The equation is now solved.
