Find all real solutions to\[x^2+4x+4=100x^2+20x+1.\]If you find more than one, then list the values separated by commas.
Hint(s):
The expressions $x^2 + 4x + 4$ and $100x^2 + 20x + 1$ each have a special property.

Gather term to one side

99x^2 + 16x -3 = 0    use quadratic formula to find   x = 22/198    and  - 54/198     or 1/9    and -3/11   Just as Caffeine computed !
