Answer:
2.(b) w= 3
3. x= -3 or x= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2.(b) <u>Method 1:</u>

Simplify:

×5 on both sides:

Expand:

Bring constants to 1 side, w terms to the other:

Simplify:

Divide both sides by 3:

<u>Method 2:</u>

Multiply by 5 throughout:

Expand:

Simplify:

+9 on both sides:

-4w on both sides:

Simplify:

Divide by 3 on both sides:

3. 
Multiply by 3x on both sides:

Expand:

Simplify:

Divide by 6 on both sides:

-9 on both sides:

Factorise:
*Since a²-b²= (a +b)(a -b),

Thus,
x +3= 0 or x -3= 0
x= -3 or x= 3
Answer:
Draw a line straight down from vertex A.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can look at the picture to see what I did. The purple line is perpendicular to line BC. I think that is what the question is asking for.
Perpendicular means that two lines intersect each other at a 90 degree angle, by the way.
