Add 6 to both sides
Solution: k = -30
So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.
So you can use proportions here.
AB / AC = AD / AE
AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3
AD = 6
So plug in these values:
AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE
Now do the cross multiply:
7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)
Now solve for AE:
7AE = 6AE + 18
AE = 18
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The solution region is x < –5 and x > 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the inequalities, 2x–2 < –12 or 2x+3 > 7
Upon simplifying the inequalities, we get,
A. 
i.e.
i.e. 
B. 
i.e.
i.e. 
So, we get the solution is
