Let the length of the pool = l

and width = w

length of a rectangular swimming pool is 10 feet longer than its width.

So , l=w+10

Perimeter of the rectangle = 100 feet

It means

2(l+w) = 100

So we have two equations

l=w+10 and 2(l+w) = 100 or l+w = 50


Plug l = w+10 into l+w =50

So we get

w+10+w= 50

Subtract 10 from both sides

2w= 40

divide both sides by 2

w=20

And l = w+10 = 20+10 = 30


So l= 30 and w= 20


So dimensions are

length of the rectangle = 30 feet

width of the rectangle = 20 feet

So Option B is correct.

A line of roses forms the diagonal of a rectangular flower garden. Th e line of roses is 18.4 m long, and one side of the garden
professor190 [17]
Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m
