Since the isosceles triangle has AB=AC, and we're given

AB=21x-14

AC=14x+7

we can equate

AB=AC

21x-14=14x+7

Solve for x

21x-14x = 7+14

7x=21

x=3

=> AB=21x-14=63-14=49 units

=> AC=14x+7=42+7=49 units

=> BC=35x-14 = 105-14=91 units

and since 49+49>91 units, the lengths satisfy the triangle inequality.
