You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"x%5E2+%2B+1+=+0\"$ Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+=+-1\"$ Subtract 1 from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+0%2B-sqrt%28-1%29\"$ Take the square root of both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since you cannot take the square root of a negative number, this means that there are no real solutions. \n" ); document.write( "
