Sure! I'll try!
2x + 29 +11 = x + 28
First, you would put like terms ( the x ) on the same side.
2x + 29 + 11 = x + 28
-2x -2x
Giving you: 29 + 11 = -3x + 28
Then, you would add 29 and 11 together to get 40.
Next, you'd put the 28 on the other side.
40 = -3x + 28
-28 - 28
Giving you: 12 = -3x
Answer:
a) The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) Areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) A median is a line that begin in a vertix and end at a midpoint of a side opposite to vertix. As first step the location of the point is determined:



The length of the median AD is calculated by the Pythagorean Theorem:

![AD = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+[0-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AD%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%284-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B0-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) In order to compare both areas, all lengths must be found with the help of Pythagorean Theorem:

![AB = \sqrt{(3-4)^{2}+[-2-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%283-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B-2-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)


![AC = \sqrt{(5-4)^{2}+[2-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AC%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%285-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B2-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)


![BC = \sqrt{(5-3)^{2}+[2-(-2)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BC%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%285-3%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B2-%28-2%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

(by the definition of median)



The area of any triangle can be calculated in terms of their side length. Now, equations to determine the areas of triangles ABD and ACD are described below:
, where 
, where 
Finally,








Therefore, areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.
Conner's work is correct. To combine and make it simple, you Multiply:
(3^5+9)+(6^8+10) which will equal 3^14 6^18.
But Jane's work, instead of adding, Jane multiplies. So, Conner is correct.
Hope that helped!
