Answer in fraction form: -17/4 < x < 11/4
Answer in decimal form: -4.25 < x < 2.75
=======================================================
Work Shown:
|4x+3| - 9 < 5
|4x+3| < 5+9 .... adding 9 to both sides
|4x+3| < 14
-14 < 4x+3 < 14 .... see note at the bottom
-14-3 < 4x < 14-3 .... subtracting 3 from all sides
-17 < 4x < 11
-17/4 < x < 11/4 .... divide all sides by 4
-4.25 < x < 2.75
This says that x is between -4.25 and 2.75, but x is not equal to either endpoint.
Note: I used the rule that |x| < k becomes -k < x < k where k is a positive real number.

Answer:
BD = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate CD in right triangle ABC, then BD in right triangle BCD
Using Pythagoras' identity in both triangles.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
In Δ ADC
CD² + AD² = AC² , substitute values
CD² + 9² = 15²
CD² + 81 = 225 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
CD = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )
CD =
= 12
----------------------------------------------------------------
In Δ BCD
BD² + CD² = BC² , substitute values
BD² + 12² = 37²
BD² + 144 = 1369 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
BD² = 1225 ( take the square root of both sides )
BD =
= 35
So since its a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem, which is
. Since we know that 2 and 3 are our legs and x is our hypotenuse, we can solve the equation as such:

Since √13 can't be further simplified, that is your final answer.
