Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
If you "open up" the parentheses, you would get:

Which, if you combine like terms, is:

Hope this helps :)
Combine like terms
X^9 = -3
divide both sides by 9
-3/9 or -1/3 reduced
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
since AD is a median it implies that triangle ABC is bisected to two equal right angled triangle which are ADB and ADC.
FE is parrallel to BC and cuts AB at F and AC at E shows that there are two similar triangles formed which are AFE and ABC.
Recall that ADC is a right angled triangle, ED bisects a right angled triangle the the ADE =
.
Now, Let FD bisect angle ADB,
then ADF =
too.
Since AFX is similar to Triangle ABD and that Triangle AEX is similar to Triangle ACD, then EDX is similar to FDX
FDE = ADF + ADE = 
This is a simple equation:
x - 7 < 14
x < 14 + 7
x < 21
→ Many people think that because there is not "=" sign they don't flip the sign of what in this case is -7. But actually, the symbols "<" and ">" act as the equal sign. This rule doesn't apply to positive number, only negative.

Into the equation y=−3x+b substitute 5 for x and 2 for y, obtaining:
2 = -3(5) + b. Then 2 = -15 + b, or b = 17.
