Divide both sides by -7 so as to isolate the n 2 term.
- 7 1 n 2 - 7 1 = - 448 64 - 7 1 n 2 = 64
now calculate both sides' square roots.
n 2 = ± 64 n = ± 8

Since it is a quadratic equation, factoring can be used to solve it.
- 7 n 2 = - 448 ÷ - 7 to simplify. Divide on both sides.
n 2 = 64 make it =0
n 2 - 64 difference of two squares.
( n + 8 ) ( n - 8 ) = 0
Either factor can be equal to 0.
If n + 8 = 0 n = - 8
If n - 8 = 0 n = 8
