Answer:

  12 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The kerosene usage is assumed to be jointly proportional to the number of stoves and the number of hours. That is ...

  v = k·s·h . . . . . for s stoves running h hours

Then the value of k is ...

  k = v/(sh) = (16 L)/(12·14) = 2/21 . . . . liters per stove-hour

Then the volume of kerosene required for 7 stoves and 18 hours is ...

  v = (2/21)·s·h

  v = (2/21)(7)(18) = 12 . . . liters

Factor completely 3x2 - 21.
VMariaS [17]
3x² - 21

Factor 3 from both terms:

3 (x² - 7)

To me, that's as far as you should need to go.  But if you want to get
completely carried away, you could go one step further, since you have
the difference of two squares:

3 (x + √7) (x - √7)

Of course, there's no end now, because the last binomial could be
considered another difference of two squares, so you'd have to
factor that too:

3 (x + √7) (√x + ⁴√7) (√x - ⁴√7)

but to me, this would be nonsense.
