Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
28x2−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
28x2=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
28x2=1
Divide both sides
2828x2=281
Divide the numbers
x2=281
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±281
