Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = - 3 and y = 2 into the left side of the inequality and compare the value obtained with the right side.

- 3 - 5(2) = - 3 - 10 = - 13 < 7

Thus (- 3, 2) is a solution of the inequality

$\bf a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \implies \sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad
\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}\implies a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}
\\\quad \\% rational negative exponent
a^{-\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} =
 \cfrac{1}{a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}} \implies \cfrac{1}{\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}}\qquad\qquad % radical denominator
\cfrac{1}{\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}}= \cfrac{1}{a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}}\implies a^{-\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \\\\
$

$\bf -----------------------------\\\\
thus\qquad \sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt[5]{3}\implies \sqrt[2]{3^1}\cdot \sqrt[5]{3^1}\implies 3^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot 3^{\frac{1}{5}}
\\\\\\
3^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{5}}\implies 3^{\frac{7}{10}}\implies \sqrt[10]{3^7}\implies \sqrt[10]{2187}$

Find the length of AB
AB²=20²+15²
AB²=400+225
AB²=625
AB=25

then find AD and BD
20²=AD·25
400=AD·25
AD=16
15²=BD·25
225=BD·25
BD=9
now use the geometric mean theorem (name?) to find CD
CD=√(9·16)
CD=√144
CD=12 cm
