a. A(x) = 3x² - 8x + 5

b. x = ⁸/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

A(x) = shaded area

A(x) = (2x - 3)² - (x - 2)²

= 4x² - 12x + 9 - (x² - 4x + 4)

= 4x² - x² - 12x + 4x + 9 - 4

= 3x² - 8x + 5

b.

ΔABF area = ⁵/₄ cm²

A(x) = 4(⁵/₄)

= 5

Substitution:

3x² - 8x + 5 = A(x) = 5

3x² - 8x + 5 = 5

3x² - 8x = 0

x(3x - 8) = 0

3x - 8 = 0

x = ⁸/₃

x = 0

Since x > 2, x = 0 is not valid;

So, x = ⁸/₃
