Solve for x a^2x^2-b^2=0

Problem

a2*x2−b2=0

Solution

1. Identify the equation as a quadratic equation that can be solved by isolating the variable term or by factoring as a difference of squares.

2. Add b2 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term containing x

a2*x2=b2

3. Divide both sides by a2 to solve for x2

x2=(b2)/(a2)

4. Take the square root of both sides, remembering to include both the positive and negative roots.

x=±√(,(b2)/(a2))

5. Simplify the square root expression using the properties of radicals.

x=±b/a

Final Answer

x=±b/a
