Answer:

(a) 0.4

(b) a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The area under the curve from x=4 to x=6 is 0.2 units high and 2 units wide, so is 0.2·2 = 0.4. (The area of a rectangle is the product of length and width.)

(b) The area is 0.2 and the height of the curve is 0.2, so the width of the region of concern is 0.2/0.2 = 1. (Again, area = height·width, or width = area/height.) 1 unit from the left end is found at X=3, so a = 3.

What is the common denominator of (5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2) in the complex fraction (2/x-2) - (3/x^2-4)/(5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2)

Answer:

common denominator: (x² -4)
simplified complex fraction: (2x +1)/(9 -2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is helpful to remember the factoring of the difference of squares:

a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)

Your denominator of (x² -4) factors as (x -2)(x +2). You will note that one of these factors is the same as the denominator in the other fraction.

It looks like you want to simplify ...

$\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2}{x-2}-\dfrac{3}{x^2-4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{x^2-4}-\dfrac{2}{x+2}\right)}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2(x+2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{3}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{2(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}\\\\=\dfrac{2(x+2)-3}{5-2(x-2)}=\boxed{\dfrac{2x+1}{9-2x}}$
