Answer:

l = \boxed{167.}\\w=\boxed{40.}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the perimeter is 414 meters, half of the perimeter is 207 meters. We can write the following equation and solve for h.

w + l = 207\\w + (4w + 7) = 207\\5w +7 = 207\\5w = 200\\w = \boxed{40.}

Here, we substituted 4w + 7 in place of l as the problem tells us that the length of the pool is 7 meters more than 4 times the width. Solving for the width gave us 40 meters.

Using this information, we can determine that the length of the swimming pool is:

4(40) + 7 = 160 + 7 = 167.

To double-check that this is correct, we can add twice the length and twice the width to see if it equals the given perimeter:

167 + 167 + 40 + 40 =  414.

Therefore, your length and width of this swimming pool are:

l = \boxed{167.}\\w=\boxed{40.}

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The y-intercept of the function represented in the graph will be: (0, 2)

The graph is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

y=3x+2

the y-intercept of the function can be determined by setting x=0 and solving for y.

so

y=3x+2

y=3(0)+2

y=0+2

y=2

Thus, the y-intercept of the function represented in the graph will be: (0, 2)

The graph is also attached.

Answer: 16 miles


Explanation:
I believe it would be 16 miles, if he starts off at 6 miles on day one and goes up 1/2 mile every day, he would be up a mile every other day, basically on day 3 he would be at 7 and day 5 at 8 miles, if the pattern continues he would be at 16 miles by day 21.
