Which is the solution of inequality ( x^2 - 1 ) / ( x^2 - 4) > -1

We'll add +1 both
sides E(x)>0.


( x^2 - 1 ) / ( x^2 - 4)
+1>0


We'll multiply 1 by the denominator ( x^2 -
4)


(x^2 - 1 + x^2 -
4)/(x^2-4)>0


(2*x^2-5)/(x^2-4)>0


The
numerator: f1(x)=2*x^2-5


The denominator
f2(x)=x^2-4


We'll discuss the sign of the
numerator.


For this reason, we'll calculate the solutions
of the equation f1(x)=0


2*x^2-5=0 => 2*x^2=5
=> x^2=5/2


x1= sqrt (5/2) and x2=-sqrt
(5/2)


For f1(x), with a=2>0, between it's
roots,we'll have the opposed sign to "a" sign, so the values of f1(x) are negative and
outside the roots, the values are positive.


f1(x)>0
for x belongs to (-inf,-sqrt(5/2))U(sqrt
(5/2),inf)


f2(x)<0 for x belongs to
(-sqrt(5/2),sqrt(5/2))


We'll discuss the sign of the
denominator f2(x)=x^2-4


f2(x)=
(x-2)(x+2)


(x-2)(x+2)=0


x1=2
and x2=-2


For f2(x), with a=1>0, between it's
roots,we'll have the opposed sign to "a" sign, so the values of f2(x) are negative and
outside the roots, the values are positive.


f2(x)>0
for x belongs to (-inf,-2)U(2,inf)


f2(x)<0 for x
belongs to (-2,2)


The intervals where
E(x)>0 are:


(-inf,-2) U
(-sqrt(5/2),sqrt(5/2)) U (2,inf)

Comment on the setting and character of &quot;The Fall of the House of Usher.&quot;How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
