✍️ Answer:


x=-(294)/(13)

✽✽✽✽


(x\cdot \:3)/(4\left(x+21\right))=10.5


\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}4\left(x+21\right)


(x\cdot \:3)/(4\left(x+21\right))\cdot \:4\left(x+21\right)=10.5\cdot \:4\left(x+21\right)


3x=42\left(x+21\right)


3x=42x+882


\mathrm{Subtract\:}42x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}


3x-42x=42x+882-42x


-39x=882


\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-39


(-39x)/(-39)=(882)/(-39)


x=-(294)/(13)
