Yes the x values are all different, if two were the same then it would not be one but in this case it is
|y-9|=6
y-9=6
y-9=-6
y=15
y=3
So, y=15,3
Integer,Irrational is the answer
First you want to reduce the brackets
Next you want to factor out the common number 3
Next you want to factor 20 + x^3 + 11x - 8x^2 by using the polynomial division method/technique
Lastly you just factor x^2 - 9x + 20 to get the answer.
Yes you are correct, the solutions are 1, 4, and 5.
The answer would depend on where the numbers you gave us are on the pyramid. but here is the formula to find the surface area of a prism;
surface area= base x height + 2 x length x side + length x base
i will do the equation for you if you specify which numbers are the base, length, side, and height. or if you attach a photo.
