With the information given, we deduce that the parabola is

Reflecting a function over the x axis means to change its sign. After the reflection, the parabola becomes

And to shift down a function, you subtract the shift from the equation: the equation becomes

Similarly, the other function is reflected over the x axis (sign change) and shifted up 3 (add 3 to the equation):

In order to compute the y intercept, we simply have to evaluate the functions at x=0: for the parabola we have

For the other function, we have

First you want to make an equation to express the problem. For this one in particular, let's make the length be represented by "L" and the width "W."
The length minus three times the width is 1 foot. This can be represented as L - 3W = 1. This means that L = 3W + 1. This will be our substitute for the length.
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times the length plus the width P = 2(L + W). By substituting these variables from what we now know we can find out the dimensions of the rectangle.
42 = 2(3W + 1 + W)
42 = 6W + 2 + 2W Multiply <u>everything in parenthesis</u> by 2.
42 = 8W + 2 Add the like terms.
40 = 8W Subtract 2 on both sides to get the <em>variable (W) </em>by itself.
5 = W Divide 8 from 40 to get what W equals.
The width is equal to 5. We can now plug in this answer to the original equation (P = 2(L + W)) or the length equation we made earlier (L = 3W + 1) to find the length.
42 = 2(L + 5)
42 = 2L + 10 Multiply <u>everything in parenthesis<em /></u><u><em /></u> by 2.<u />
32 = 2L Subtract 10 from both sides to get the <em>variable (L) </em>by itself.
16 = L Divide 2 from 32 to get what L equals.
<u>Or</u><u />
L = 3(5) + 1 Replace the <em>variable (W) </em>with 5.
L = 15 + 1 Multiply 3 by 5 to get 15.
L = 16 Add the remaining terms!
So the dimensions of the rectangle are 5 and 16, where 5 is the width and 16 is the length. I hope this answer made sense and that you can solve these on your own in the future!
