Light Bulb

What are the two possible resistances of a light bulb in a series circuit?

A light bulb is wired in series with a 138-Ω resistor, and they are connected across a 120-V source. The power delivered to the light bulb is 23.5 W. What are the two possible resistances of the light bulb?

let R = resistance of the bulb.

Voltage across bulb is
V = 120R/(R+138)
current is
I = 120/(R+138)
power is VI = 23.5

[ 120R/(R+138) ] [ 120/(R+138) ] = 23.5
(120R)(120) = 23.5(R+138)²
613R = R² + 276R + 21904
R² – 336.8R + 21904 = 0
using a quadratic solver
R = 249, 88.1 ohms
