4.5(4-x) + 36 = 202 - 2.5(3x + 28)
Distributive property
18 - 4.5x + 36 = 202 - 7.5x - 70
Combine like terms
-4.5x + 54 = -7.5x + 132
Add 7.5x to both sides
3x = 78
Divide both sides by 3
x = 26
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are given the quadratic model, we know that the height of anything on the ground is 0 meters, so that model becomes
I changed your x's to t's since t is for time.
Now we need to factor that quadratic and solve for time:

Since -2 definitely does not equal 0, then

Factor that and find t values of 4 and -2. Again, we know that time will never be negative, so
t = 4 seconds.
Usually you are given more information about the rectangle such as distance of length in terms of width.
You know that the formula for perimeter is
P=2(l+w)
Substitute p and the other values to find width.
Hope I helped :)
