The value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D

<h3>How to determine the value</h3>

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as;

Perimeter = 2 ( length + width)

It is important to note that parallel sides of a rectangle are congruent, that is, they are equal.

Given the sides as;

  • AC = 5y + 6
  • BD = 8y-3

5y + 6 = 8y -3

collect like terms

5y - 8y = -3 - 6

-3y = -9

Make 'y' the subject

y = 3

Thus, the value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D
