Simora [160]
Initially started 20 feet from the ground . 
Went uphill 83 feet. 
So: 20 + 83 = 103. The coaster is 103 ft above at this point. 

Went down 42 feet 
So: 103 - 42 = 61. 

Went up 128 feet
So: 61 + 128 = 189

Finally, went down 90 feet
So: 189 - 90 = 99

99 ft above ground.

A rectangle has a perimeter, P, length, l, and width, w. Which of the following represents l in terms of P and w?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: l = P/2 - w

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter formula for rectangle :

P = 2( l + w )

We have to write l in terms of P and W.

P/2 = ( l + w)

P/2 - w = l

Now, flip the equation and you'll get :

l = P/2 - w
