Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the pool is $864\ ft^2$

The pool's width is 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume and Area

The volume of a rectangular pool is the product of the pool's area and depth. We are given the pool's depth d=12 feet and the pool's volume V=10368 $ft^3$

Since:

$V= d*A$

Solving for A:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{V}{d}=\frac{10368}{12}=864\ ft^2$

The area of the pool is $864\ ft^2$

Now we calculate the pool's width, knowing the area is the product of the pool's length and width. Knowing the length is L=24 ft:

$A=L*W$

Solve for W:

$\displaystyle W=\frac{A}{L}=\frac{864}{24}=36$

The pool's width is 36 ft
