Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Pool:</u>

Width = x ft

Length = (x+6) ft

<u>Pool along with walkway:</u>

Width = x + 5 + 5 = (x + 10) ft

Length = x + 6 + 5 + 5 = (x + 16) ft

Total area of the pool with walkway = 950 sq.ft

length * width = 950

(x+16) * (x + 10) = 950

Use FOIL method,

x*x + x *10 + 16*x + 16 *10 = 950

x² + 10x + 16x + 160 -950 = 0   {Add like terms}

x² + 26x - 790 = 0

Answer:

29.4 length and 21.4 width.

Step-by-step explanation:

To fin the dimensions of the pool we need to use the total area of the pool plus the concrete walkway. Lets say that W is the width and L the length. We know that, the walkway has 3 ft wide, this means that the width and length are increased by 6ft (3ft on each side). So, the total

J.K. Rowling and R.L. Stine are both reading the hunger games. J.K. reads 35 pages every 2 hours and R.L. reads 45 pages every 3
Lilit [14]

Attention:THIS IS PART B <em>ONLY!</em>

First,find the unit rate.

35/2   and   <em>x</em>/1

35 divided by 2 = 17.5 so the unit rate for J.K. is 17.5 pages per hour.

now,R.L.

45/3   and  <em>x</em>/1

45 divided by 3 = 15 so the unit rate for R.L. is 15 pages per hour

now we need to divide 355 by 17.5 and divide it by 15.Whichever quotient is smaller,finishes the book first

355 divided by 17.5 = about 20 hrs----J.K.

355 divided by 15 = about 24 hrs-----R.L.

So,who read faster?

if a triangle is an equilateral triangle then the triangle has exactly three 60 angles abc is an equilateral triangle​
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The statement is always TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle has all angles and all sides equal

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Let each of the angles be x degrees.

Then we solve the following equation for x.

x+x+x=180\degree

\implies 3x=180

\implies x=\frac{180}{3}=60\degree
