Let x = the width of the border

2x+23) by (2x + 33) are the overall dimensions of the pool and the border. Use the area to find x!

Overall area - pool area = 660 sq/ft (aggregate area)

(2x+23)*(2x+33) - (23*33) = 660

Solve.

4x^2+112x = 660

4x^2+112x−660=0 → subtract 660 on both sides

4(x−5)(x+33)=0 → factor

x−5=0 or x+33=0 → set both factors equal to 0

x = 5 or x = -33

In this case, we would use the positive solution, so the strip can be 5 ft. wide!

I hope this helps :)

What is the area of the trapezoid?<br><br> 80m2<br> 96m2<br> 100m2<br> 120 m2
never [62]

Answer:

100m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area of trapezoid formula: ({b_{1} +b_{2})}{1/2h}

b=base

so

base #1= 8

base #2= 12

h(height)= 10

(8+12)=20(sum of bases)

20/2=10(sum of bases over 2)

10*10=100(height * whats remaining of bases)

100m^2

hope this helps
