How do i change the strings on my acoustic guitar?

Basically, i have an acoustic guitar, but the strings i have bought do not have a ball on them.
The bridge of my guitar has pegs on it, and i’m wondering how to fasten these strings?
I have looked at videos, but either all the strings have balls on, or the guitar doesnt have pegs.
Should i just buy some new strings?
Thanks.

Yes, you should buy new strings. I use and recommend Elixir Nanoweb light gauge acoustic strings. I’m guessing you have classical guitar strings, which are not what you need. If you have a pin bridge then you have a steel string guitar and you need steel strings.
If you need help changing the strings, look here:

Good luck.
