Solution for 4x+3(x+7)=1.4x(x+7) equation:


Simplifying
4x + 3(x + 7) = 1.4x(x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
4x + 3(7 + x) = 1.4x(x + 7)
4x + (7 * 3 + x * 3) = 1.4x(x + 7)
4x + (21 + 3x) = 1.4x(x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
21 + 4x + 3x = 1.4x(x + 7)

Combine like terms: 4x + 3x = 7x
21 + 7x = 1.4x(x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
21 + 7x = 1.4x(7 + x)
21 + 7x = (7 * 1.4x + x * 1.4x)
21 + 7x = (9.8x + 1.4x2)

Solving
21 + 7x = 9.8x + 1.4x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 7x + -9.8x = -2.8x
21 + -2.8x + -1.4x2 = 9.8x + 1.4x2 + -9.8x + -1.4x2

Reorder the terms:
21 + -2.8x + -1.4x2 = 9.8x + -9.8x + 1.4x2 + -1.4x2

Combine like terms: 9.8x + -9.8x = 0.0
21 + -2.8x + -1.4x2 = 0.0 + 1.4x2 + -1.4x2
21 + -2.8x + -1.4x2 = 1.4x2 + -1.4x2

Combine like terms: 1.4x2 + -1.4x2 = 0.0
21 + -2.8x + -1.4x2 = 0.0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1.4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1.4'.
-15 + 2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 2x + 15 + x2 = 0 + 15

Reorder the terms:
-15 + 15 + 2x + x2 = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 2x + x2 = 0 + 15
2x + x2 = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15
2x + x2 = 15

The x term is 2x.  Take half its coefficient (1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
2x + 1 + x2 = 15 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + 2x + x2 = 15 + 1

Combine like terms: 15 + 1 = 16
1 + 2x + x2 = 16

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 1)(x + 1) = 16

Calculate the square root of the right side: 4

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 1) equal to 4 and -4.

Subproblem 1

x + 1 = 4 Simplifying x + 1 = 4 Reorder the terms: 1 + x = 4 Solving 1 + x = 4 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + x = 4 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + x = 4 + -1 x = 4 + -1 Combine like terms: 4 + -1 = 3 x = 3 Simplifying x = 3

Subproblem 2

x + 1 = -4 Simplifying x + 1 = -4 Reorder the terms: 1 + x = -4 Solving 1 + x = -4 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + x = -4 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + x = -4 + -1 x = -4 + -1 Combine like terms: -4 + -1 = -5 x = -5 Simplifying x = -5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {3, -5}
