Answer:
x = 5 or 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Square both sides to get
x^2 - 6x + 9 = 4 now subtract four from both sides
x^2 -6x+5 = 0 now factor ( or use quadratic formula)
(x-5)(x-1) = 0 so x = 5 or 1
a. Factorize the denominator:

Then we're looking for
such that


If
, then
; if
, then
. So we have

as required.
b. Same setup as in (a):

We want to find
such that

Quick aside: for the second term, since the denominator has degree 2, we should be looking for another constant
such that the numerator of the second term is
. We always want the polynomial in the numerator to have degree 1 less than the degree of the denominator. But we would end up determining
anyway.

If
, then
; if
, then
. Expanding everything on the right then gives

which tells us
and
; in both cases, we get
. Then

as required.
Answer:
Dylan is playing anywhere from 3.5 hours to 9.5 hours of electronic games on week days.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
228.36 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The total surface area is the area of two trapezoids and 4 rectangles. The rectangles all have the same width, so we can figure their area by finding their total length: the perimeter of the trapezoid.
<u>rectangle area</u>
The perimeter of the isosceles trapezoid is the sum of its edge lengths:
P = 13 +8.06 +5 +8.06 = 34.12
The rectangles are 3 ft wide, so their total area is ...
A = LW = (34.12 ft)(3 ft) = 102.36 ft^2
__
<u>trapezoid area</u>
The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)(13 ft +5 ft)(7 ft) = 63 ft^2
__
<u>total area</u>
As we said, the total area is the sum of the rectangle area and that of two trapezoids:
total area = rectangle area + 2 × trapezoid area
A = 102.36 ft^2 + 2 × 63 ft^2
A = 228.36 ft^2
The area of the trapezoidal prism in figure 1 is 228.36 square feet.
