a. x=-8/27
b. x=16/25
c. x=-3/16
d. x=-4/3
a: \(x=\dfrac{-1}{3}+\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)^3=\dfrac{-1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{-9+1}{27}=\dfrac{-8}{27}\)
b: \(x=\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^7:\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^5=\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^2=\dfrac{16}{25}\)
c: \(x=\dfrac{1}{16}-\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{16}-\dfrac{4}{16}=\dfrac{-3}{16}\)
d: =>3x+1=-3
=>3x=-4
=>x=-4/3
