Answer: 52 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating mean = sum of each data / total number

Let the age of the sixth person be x , then

mean = 23 + 13 + 17 + 12 + 15 + x / 6

That is :

22 = 23 + 13 + 17 + 12 + 15 + x / 6

22 = \frac{80+x}{6}

80+ x = 22 x 6

80 + x = 132

x = 132 - 80

x = 52

Solve the quadratic equation 3x²+x-5=0
PIT_PIT [208]
This does not look easy to factor, so I'd suggest using the quadratic formula:
        -1 plus or minus sqrt( 1-4(3)(-5) )
x = -----------------------------------------------
                               2*3

         -1 plus or minus sqrt(61)
    = ------------------------------------
                             6

Thus, there are 2 real, unequal, irrational roots / solutions.

The dimensions of the prism can be 2x, 2x+3 and x+6.

We first factor out the GCF of the trinomial.  The GCF of the coefficients is 2.  Each term has an x in common as well, so the GCF is 2x.

Factoring out the 2x, we have
2x(2x²+15x+18).

To factor the remaining trinomial, we find factors of 2*18=36 that sum to 15.  12*3 = 36 and 12+3 = 15.  We split up 15x into 12x and 3x:

2x(2x²+12x+3x+18)

Now we group together the first two terms in parentheses and the last two:
2x((2x²+12x)+(3x+18))

Factor out the GCF of the first group:
2x(2x(x+6)+(3x+18))

Factor out the GCF of the second group:
2x(2x(x+6)+3(x+6))

Factoring out what these have in common,
2x(x+6)(2x+3)
