To determine how many solutions there are to the equation \(3x^2 = 21\), we can follow these steps:
1. Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
\[
x^2 = \frac{21}{3}
\]
\[
x^2 = 7
\]
2. Now, take the square root of both sides:
\[
x = \pm \sqrt{7}
\]
This indicates that there are two solutions: \(x = \sqrt{7}\) and \(x = -\sqrt{7}\).
Therefore, the correct answer is:
**two**
