Answer:

-1<x<3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that -3<2x-1<5

In order to solve this compound inequality, we need to isolate the variable. Thus, we can first add 1 to all three parts, isolating the x. We then get

-2<2x<6

Now, all we need to do is divide both sides by 2, which will give us one x. This results in our answer, or

-1<x<3

Find the area of the shaded region of the region

Alecsey [184]

Check the picture below.

so, if we get the whole area of the figure, which will be the combined areas of those three rectangles, and if we get the area of the triangle, and then subtract that area from of the triangle from the whole figure's area, we're in effect making a whole in the total area, and what's leftover is the shaded area.

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the rectangles}}{(1.6\cdot 5.2)+(2.7\cdot 8.4)+(1.6\cdot 5.2)}~~-~~\stackrel{\textit{area of the triangle}}{\cfrac{1}{2}(2.7)(8.4)} \\\\\\ 8.32+22.68+8.32~~-~~11.34\implies 39.32-11.34\implies 27.98$
