Answer:

x = 3\\x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic equation

x^2 + 4x - 21 =0

To solve the equation we must factor it.

To factor the equation we must find 2 numbers b and c that when adding them, you obtain as result 4 (c + b = 4) and when multiplying them, you obtain as result -21 (c * b = -21).

Then the polynomial will be factored in the following way:

(x+c)(x + b) = 0

You can verify that the numbers that meet this condition are:b = 7\\c = -3

So

x^2 + 4x - 21 =(x-3)(x + 7)=0

Finally the solutions are:

x = 3\\x = -7

Answer:

x = -7 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 4x - 21 = 0 factors as follows:  (x + 7)(x - 3) = 0.

Then x = -7 and x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute all the values in the equation.

n/2 ≥ -3

-10/2 ≥ -3

-5 is not ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-7/2 ≥ -3

-3.5 is not ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-4/2 ≥ -3

-2 is ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-9/2 ≥ -3

-4.5 is not ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-6/2 ≥ -3

-3 is ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-3/2 ≥ -3

-1.5 is ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-8/2 ≥ -3

-4 is not ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-5/2 ≥ -3

-2.5 is ≥ -3.

n/2 ≥ -3

-2/2 ≥ -3

-1 is ≥ -3.

To solve the inequality n/2 ≥ -3 for n, do these steps.

n/2 ≥ -3

Multiply by 2.

n ≥ -6.

poizon [28]

Answer:

w = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean

\frac{w+3}{3} = - 4 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

w + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

w = - 15
