Answer:

Multiply the first bracket by 3

Multiply the second bracket by -2

3x+3=-2x+2-4

3x+2x+3=-2x-2   negative (-) number and positive number (+)= negative number

Just rearranging

5x+3=-2

5x+3-3=-2-3

5x=-5

Dividing by 5

5x/5=-5/5

x=-1

Check answer by using substitution method

3(-1+1)=-2(-1-1)-4

0=-2(-2)-4 negative number and negative number = positive number

0=4-4

0=0

Answer is x=-1

Answer:

- Right Angle Triangle – A Right triangle is a triangle in which one angle is a right angle (that is, a 90-degree angle). The relation between the sides and angles of a right triangle is the basis for trigonometry (opposite, hypotenuse, adjacent).

- Obtuse Triangle – An obtuse triangle is a triangle with one obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and two acute angles.

- Acute Triangle – An acute triangle is a triangle with three acute angles (less than 90°).

13 - Obtuse Triangle

14 - Acute Triangle

15 - Acute Triangle

16 - Right Angle Triangle

(hg^(-3))/(w^(-4) k^0 )
Svetlanka [38]
One may note you never quite asked anything, now, assuming simplification,

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{negative exponents}\\\\
a^{-n} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^n}
\qquad \qquad
\cfrac{1}{a^n}\implies a^{-n}
\qquad \qquad 
a^n\implies \cfrac{1}{a^{-n}}
\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{hg^{-3}}{w^{-4}k^0}\implies \cfrac{hw^4}{g^3(1)}\implies \cfrac{hw^4}{g^3}
