RAM Compatibility

I have a DELL VOSTRO 3470 Desktop ( 4GB memory, i3-8100 CPU).

I want to upgrade its memory to 8GB by adding another 4GB RAM stick.

Are the following RAM's compatible with my system?

I presently have a single 4GB stick running at 2400 MHz.

Best to avoid KVR (Kingston Value RAM).  Its mostly been incompatible with Dell's.  

Actually best to replace both with new memory.  Mixing brands can also be a failure.  

For non-Dell branded memory, we suggest Crucial as its guaranteed to work in a Dell.
