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

[tex](3x + 7)(x + 7) = 0 \\ \\ \\3x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ 3x = - 7 \\ \\ x = \frac{ - 7}{3} . \\ \\ \\ x + 7 = 0 \\ \\ x = - 7.[/tex]
