Answer:
PLEASE MARK ME AS A BRAIN LIST
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Remove parentheses.
\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x+4}=\frac{4}{21}
x
1
−
x+4
1
=
21
4
2 Multiply both sides by the Least Common Denominator: 21x(x+4)21x(x+4).
21(x+4)-21x=4x(x+4)21(x+4)−21x=4x(x+4)
3 Simplify.
84=4{x}^{2}+16x84=4x
2
+16x
4 Move all terms to one side.
84-4{x}^{2}-16x=084−4x
2
−16x=0
5 Factor out the common term 44.
4(21-{x}^{2}-4x)=04(21−x
2
−4x)=0
6 Factor out the negative sign.
4\times -({x}^{2}+4x-21)=04×−(x
2
+4x−21)=0
7 Divide both sides by 44.
-{x}^{2}-4x+21=0−x
2
−4x+21=0
8 Multiply both sides by -1−1.
{x}^{2}+4x-21=0x
2
+4x−21=0
9 Factor {x}^{2}+4x-21x
2
+4x−21.
(x-3)(x+7)=0(x−3)(x+7)=0
10 Solve for xx.
x=3,-7x=3,−7

we get the equation:
x² + 4x - 21 = 0
x² + 7x - 3x - 21 = 0
x [x + 7] - 3 [x + 7] = 0
[x - 3] [x + 7] = 0
x = +3 or x = -7
x = -7 rejected
because negative sign can't exist.
so, x = +3.
