How do you factor this equation?

Question

I'm working on some math homework and I'm having some trouble with the following equation. Would it be possible to explain how it works?

49x2=1

(The two is a subscript, as in 49x to the second.)

Answer 1

Question is 49(x ^ 2) = 1, now divide both sides of equation by 49, it will become, x^2 = 1 / 49

(Note that dividing both sides will not deform the equation, LHS and RHS will remain equal because we have divided both sides by the same number)

=> x = 1 /7 and also x = -1 / 7 (two solutions of x are possible).
