Answer:
Ok, we know that we can write a horizontal translation as:
y' = f(x - A)
where if A is positive, this moves the graph of f(x) A units to the right.
Why is this?
Ok, let's compare:
y = f(x)
and
y' = f(x - A)
in y, when x = 0 we have f(0).
While to have this same point in y', we need to evaluate in x = A.
f(A - A) = f(0).
Then the value f(0) is now at x = A, this means that the point moved A units to the right.
And you can do this for all the values, so you will find that the entire graph of f(x) has ben moved A units to the right.
Brett ran 9 1/2 miles or 9.5 miles
Adam ran 5.75 miles
9.5 - 5.75 = 3.75
Brett ran 3.75 miles more than Adam
Let 
be the dimensions of the rectangle. We know the equations for both area and perimeter:
So, we have the following system:
From the second equation, we can deduce
Plug this in the first equation to get
Refactor as
And solve with the usual quadratic formula to get
Both solutions are feasible, because they're both positive.
If we chose the positive solution, we have
If we choose the negative solution, we have
So, we're just swapping the role of 
and 
. The two dimensions of the rectangle are 
and 
True (no one input gives two different outputs) good luck!
