A telecommunications company is building a third cell tower in a region with existing towers located at A(-2,-3) and B(5,-3). Each unit in the coordinate plane represents 0.6 mile. They ask you to determine the location of the third tower so that the triangle formed by the three cell towers has an area of about 10.1 square miles and a perimeter of about 15 miles, and the distance from the third tower to tower A is about 6 miles. Estimate the coordinates of the third tower to the nearest integer.
