SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)

I DONT KNOW JUST STRAT WITH THE BEGGINIG OF THE SENTENCE
A: 55
b: 50
c: 100
the sum of all the angles of a triangle must equal 180
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-4)-3x=10
- Rule = a(b + c) = ab + ac
- Rule = a(b - c) = ab - ac
4(x-4) = 4x - 16
4(x-4)-3x=10
4x - 16 - 3x = 10
x - 16 = 10
x -16 +16 = 10 +16
x = 26
Hope this helps ^-^
