Answer:
e = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4/3 = -6e - 5/3
transfer -6e to the right
4/3 = -5/3 -6e
Find the LCM of 3,3and 1
and their LCM is 3. So, divide all through by 3
3(4/3) = 3(-5/3) - 6e × 3
4 = -5 -18e
combine 
4 + 5 = -18e
9 = -18e
divide by -18
9/ -18 = -18e/ -18
-1/2 = e
e = -1/2
 
        
             
        
        
        
The property used in #20 was called 'the distributive property'.
This property gets rid of the parenthesis and also gets the expression more simple. 
x(y+b)
x*y + x*b              ⇔ Notice the change here? 
Answer would be: Distributive property 
        
             
        
        
        
The intersecting secant theorem states the relationship between the two intersecting secants of the same circle. The given problems can be solved using the intersecting secant theorem.
<h3>What is Intersecting Secant Theorem?</h3>
When two line secants of a circle intersect each other outside the circle, the circle divides the secants into two segments such that the product of the outside segment and the length of the secant are equal to the product of the outside segment other secant and its length.
a(a+b)=c(c+d)
1.)
6(x+6) = 5(5+x+3)
6x + 36 = 25 + 5x + 15
x = 4
2.)
4(2x+4)=5(5+x)
8x + 16 = 25 + 5x
3x = 9
x = 3
3.)
8x(6x+8x) = 7(9+7)
8x(14x) = 112
112x² = 112
x = 1
4.)
(x+3)² = 16(x-3)
x² + 9 + 6x = 16x - 48
x² - 10x - 57 = 0
x = 14.0554

Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Required
Find a and b
Substitute  for x and y in
 for x and y in 



Rewrite as:

The above implies that (a) is correct;
Hence:
 
    
So, the equation is:
