Question

(3x+7)(x+7)=0
What are the two possible values?​

Answer 1

`(3x + 7)(x + 7) = 0 \\ \\ \\3x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ 3x = - 7 \\ \\ x = ( - 7)/(3) . \\ \\ \\ x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ x = - 7.`

Answer 2

For the given equation, either 3x + 7 = 0 or x + 7 = 0

Now,

• 3x + 7 = 0

• 3x = -7

• x = -7/3

or

• x + 7 = 0

• x = -7

So, possible values of x is : -7 and -7/3
