The width of the walkway around the pool will be 2 feet.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

Let L be the length and W be the width of the rectangle.

Then the area of the rectangle will be

Area of the rectangle = L × W square units

Nicole is building a walkway with a width of x feet to go around a swimming pool that measures 11 feet by 7 feet.

Let a be the width of the walkway.

The area of the pool will be

If the total area of the pool and the walkway will be 165 square feet.

Area of pool = (11 + 2a) x (7 + 2a)

165 = 4a² + 36a + 77

4a² + 36a - 88 = 0

a² + 9a - 22 = 0

a² + 11a - 2a - 22 = 0

(a + 11)(a - 2) = 0

a = -11, 2

The width of the walkway around the pool will be 2 feet.

More about the area of the rectangle link is given below.

Aless and Louis are going to put a rectangular pool in their backyard. The cost of installation is $6,000. If the dimensions of
lana [24]

Answer:

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular pool has a dimension of 30 m by 20 m by 2 m. To know the cost of the pool per cubic meter we have to calculate the volume of the pool . Then divide the total cost of the pool by it volume.

volume of the rectangular pool = length × height × width

volume of the rectangular pool = 30 × 20 × 2

volume of the rectangular pool = 1200  m²

The cost of installation is $6000 . The volume of the pool is 1200 cubic meters.

cost per cubic meters = total cost of installation/volume

cost per cubic meters = 6000/1200

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5

Can any one give me a fast answer please I need help
icang [17]

Answer:

C = n + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well looking at the line on the graph we can see that the y intercept is 2 because the y intercept is the point in the line that touches the y axis.

And the slope is how fat away each points are from each other on a line so we can find the slope by using two points on the line, we can use (1,3) and (2,4).

So we set up the formula like this \frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}.

And now we gotta plug in the numbers and solve so the answer is 4-3 = 1 and 2-1 = 1 so the slope is 1.

And we can’t write that as just n.

So the answer is C = n + 2.

For proof look at the image below.
