We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118

 Because you have to subsititue 73 for x. So you have to multiply 73 by 4 then what you get out of that you have to add it by 3.

Answer:

(5,9) and (5,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the point is (5,6), and the question tells you to plot two points that are three units away from (5,6) but share the same X coordinate.

The X coordinate is 5. And 6 is the Y coordinate, if we do 6-3=2. 6+3=9.

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function
nlexa [21]
H = - 16 t² + 36 t + 10
The maximum height of the ball is at the vertex of the parabola.
t = - b / 2 a
t = -36/-32
t = 1.12 s
The maximum height of the ball:
h max = - 16 * 1.12² + 32* 1.12 + 10 = - 16 * 1.2544 + 35.84 + 10 =
=  - 20.0704 + 45.84 = 25.7696 = 25.77 m
