x^{2}+2x+1+3\geq x
Use binomial theorem \left(a+b\right)^{2}=a^{2}+2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x+1\right)^{2}.
x^{2}+2x+4\geq x
Add 1 and 3 to get 4.
x^{2}+2x+4-x\geq 0
Subtract x from both sides.
x^{2}+x+4\geq 0
Combine 2x and -x to get x.
x^{2}+x+4=0
To solve the inequality, factor the left hand side. Quadratic polynomial can be factored using the transformation ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right), where x_{1} and x_{2} are the solutions of the quadratic equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{-1±\sqrt{1^{2}-4\times 1\times 4}}{2}
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. Substitute 1 for a, 1 for b, and 4 for c in the quadratic formula.
x=\frac{-1±\sqrt{-15}}{2}
Do the calculations.
0^{2}+0+4=4
Since the square root of a negative number is not defined in the real field, there are no solutions. Expression x^{2}+x+4 has the same sign for any x. To determine the sign, calculate the value of the expression for x=0.
x\in \mathrm{R}
The value of the expression x^{2}+x+4 is always positive. Inequality holds for x\in \mathrm{R}.
