We are asked to solve for the width "x" in the given problem. To visualize the problem, see attached drawing.
We have the area of the swimming pool such as:
Area SP = l x w
Area SP = 10 * 16
Area SP = 160 feet2
Area of the swimming pool plus the sidewalk with uniform width:
Area SP + SW = (10 + x) * (16 + x)
160 + 155 = 160 + 10x + 16x + x2
160 -160 + 155 = 26x + x2
155 = 26 x + x2
x2 + 26x -155= 0
Solving for x, we need to use quadratic formula and the answer is 5 feet.
The value of x is

Answer:
Surface Area varies by object/shape.
Ask your teacher/learning helper for those formulas of surface area
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area is the sum of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area.
Since the slope is rise/run, 1/6 goes up one, right 6. Perpendicular is opposite that. so a slope of -6 goes down 6 and right 1. (as a fraction it's -6/1)
Answer: x=-7
