To solve the equation \( x^2 - 100 = 0 \), we start by isolating \( x^2 \):

\[
x^2 = 100
\]

Next, we take the square root of both sides. Remember to account for both the positive and negative roots:

\[
x = \pm \sqrt{100}
\]

Calculating the square root:

\[
\sqrt{100} = 10
\]

Thus, we get:

\[
x = \pm 10
\]

This means the solutions to the equation are:

\[
x = 10 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -10
\]

Therefore, the correct response is:

**-10, 10**
