More Steps

Evaluate
1−126x2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−126x2=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−126x2=−1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
126x2=1
Divide both sides
126126x2=1261
Divide the numbers
x2=1261
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±1261
