Algebra

The equation x^2 + 3x + 7 = 6/(x^2 + 3x + 2) is solved by substituting u = x^2 + 3x, resulting in a quadratic equation in u. Factoring the quadratic equation yields two possible values for u, which are then substituted back into the substitution to find the solutions for x using the quadratic formula. One case results in two real solutions, while the other yields no real solutions.
