(10x+7)^2 = 2(32x^2+70x+25)
FOIL the left side, distribute the right side
(10x+7)(10x+7) = 64x^2 + 140x + 50
100x^2 + 70x + 70x + 49 = 64x^2 + 140x + 50
Combine like terms on the left
100x^2 - 64x^2 + 70x + 70x - 140x + 49 - 50 = 0
36x^2 - 1 = 0
Factors as the difference of squares
(6x+1)(6x-1) = 0
6x = +/-1
x = +/-
