The statement correct is: a(-3,-9).

\bf g(x)=\cfrac{36}{x-1}\implies g(x)=36(x-1)^{-1}\qquad thus
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dg}{dx}=36\cdot -1(x-1)^{-2}\implies \cfrac{dg}{dx}=-\cfrac{36}{(x-1)^2}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{now, if the instantaneous rate of change is -9, then}
\\\\\\
-9-\cfrac{36}{(x-1)^2}\implies (x-1)^2=\cfrac{-36}{-9}\implies (x-1)^2=4
\\\\\\
x-1=\pm\sqrt{4}\implies x-1=\pm 2\quad x=
\begin{cases}
3\\
-1
\end{cases}

well, then we know when x = 3 or -1, the slope is -9, what's "y"?

\bf x=3\qquad  g(x)=\cfrac{36}{(3)-1}\implies g(x)=18\qquad \boxed{(3,18)}
\\\\\\
x=-1\qquad g(x)=\cfrac{36}{(-1)-1}\implies g(x)=-18\qquad (3,-18)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 28.8 centimeters. The length of the rectangle is twice as long as it’s with. Find the length and
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Length=9.6 cm\\\\Width=4.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length=2*Width

L=2*W

Perimeter=28.8 cm

Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(Length+Width)

28.8=2(2W+W)\\\\28.8=2(3W)\\\\3W=28.8/2\\\\3W=14.4\\\\W=14.4/3\\\\W=4.8 cm\\\\

Length=2*Width\\\\=2*4.8\\\\=9.6 cm\\\\

Length=9.6 cm\\\\Width=4.8 cm

Elimination to solve the system of equation<br> x-y=5 and x+y=3
Alik [6]
X = 4 , y = -1
Explanation:
solve by elimination ie eliminate x or y from the equations by performing operations on them.
first label the equations , to follow the process.
x - y = 5 ----------------(1)
x+ y = 3 ----------------(2)
If (1) and (2) are added then y will be eliminated.
(1) + (2) gives : 2x = 8 → x = 4
now substitute this value of x into either of the 2 equations and solve for y.
let x = 4 in (1) : 4 - y = 5 → -y = 1 → y = -1
check in (1) : 4-(-1) = 4+1 = 5
check in(2) : 4 - 1 = 3
