P=66
L=w+6

P= 2(w+3)+2(w)
66= 2(w+3)+2(w)
66=2w+6+2w
66=4w+6
60=4w
15=w
L=18(15+3)

The width is 15
The length is 18

The stream of water from a fountain follows a parabolic path. The stream reaches a maximum height of 12 feet, represented by a v
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the vertex form equation for a parabola:

y=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) is the vertex.

Therefore, we have y=a(x-8)^2+12 as our equation so far. If we plug in (16,0) we can find a:

0=a(16-8)^2+12

0=64a+12

-12=64a

-12/64=a

-3/16=a

Therefore, your final equation is y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12

The sum of two numbers is 53. if twice the first number minus three times the second number is 26, find both numbers.
EastWind [94]
Make an equation system based on the problem
eg. a is the first number and b is the seond number
An equation for "<span>The sum of two numbers is 53" is
</span>⇒ a + b = 53
An equation for "<span>twice the first number minus three times the second number is 26"
</span>⇒ 2a - 3b = 26
<span>
Solve the equations by elimination and subtitution method
Eliminate a to find the value of b
a + b = 53   (multiplied by 2)
2a - 3b = 26
--------------------------------------
2a + 2b = 106
2a -  3b = 26
------------------- - (substract)
       5b = 80
         b = 80/5
         b = 16

Subtitute the value of b to one of the equations
a + b = 53
a + 16 = 53
a = 53 - 16
a = 37

The numbers are 16 and 37</span>

A helicopter is flying above a town. the local high school is directly to the east of the helicopter at a 20° angle of depressio
guapka [62]
Answer: 4.5 miles

Explanation:

When you draw the situation you find two triangles.

1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°

b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter

c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter

d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x

2) triangle to the west of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°

b)  distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse

c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter

d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x

3) tangent ratios

a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school

tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°

b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school

tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°

c) equal the height from both triangles:

x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°

x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°

x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°

x  (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°

⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)

⇒ x = 4,19 miles

=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles

4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:

hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²

hipotenuse = 4.46 miles

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles

That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.
