Answer:
9x^2 - 36x + 36 sq. ft. (the first option).
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a square of side d = d^2.
So area of this square = (3x - 6)^2
= (3x - 6)(3x - 6)
= 3x(3x - 6) - 6(3x - 6)
= 9x^2 - 18x - 18x + 36
= 9x^2 - 36x + 36 sq ft.
y=x^2-2x-15 (1) y=8x-40 (2)
8x-40=x^2-2x-15
X^2+10x-25=0
(x-5)^2
×=5 y=0
Part A.
Consider a punch containing L liters.
60% of these that is

is grape juice, and the rest, 0.4 L is lemon-soda.
so, for the variable L, the total amount of punch, the total amount of grape juice is 0.6 L
and the amount of lemon soda in the punch is 0.4L
Part B.
For L=2, we substitute and get:
0.6 L=0.6 * 2 liters = 1.2 liters of grape juice
0.4 L = 0.4 * 2 liters = 0.8 liters of lemon soda.
Notice the picture below
so.... the angle of depression, is above in dashed lines.... however, the angle of depression, is identical to the angle of elevation from the water, since, both angles are "alternate interior" angles
now, using the 45-45-90 rule, then we know the swimmer is 90 feet from the lighthouse, then just use the tangent ratio to get "x"
2x + y = 0
2x + 3 = 0
- 3 - 3
2x = -3
2 2
x = -1¹/₂
(x, y) = (-1¹/₂, 3)
