Answer:


\large\boxed{\fcolorbox{x=10 }{}{}} OR
\large\boxed{\fcolorbox{x=-10 }{}{}}

Let's solve the equation step-by-step:

First, you must find the square root:

x = ±
√(100)

We know that 10 × 10 = 100 and -10 x -10 is 100

that means that the square root is either 10 or -10

And we also know that
10^2
-10^2 are both 100

meaning that x =
10^2 OR
-10^2
