4x -  2y =  48 ⇒ 4x -    2y = 48
2x + 6y = -18 ⇒ <u>4x + 12y = -36</u>
                                 <u>-14y</u> = <u>84</u>
                                  -14    -14
                                       y = -6
                          4x - 2(-6) = 48
                            4x + 12 = 48
                            <u>      - 12 - 12</u>
                                    <u>4x</u> = <u>36</u>
                                     4      4
                                      x = 9
                                (x, y) = (9, -6)

4x-2y=48\\ \\ 2x+6y=-18

First we'll multiply the second equation by -2


-2\cdot (2x+6y)=-2\cdot -18\\ \\ -4x-12y=36

Now let's add the new equation and the first one.

(4x-2y)+(-4x-12y)=48+36\\ \\ 4x-4x-2y-12y=48+36\\ \\ -14y=84\\ \\ y=\frac { 84 }{ -14 } \\ \\ y=-6

We found y's value. We'll plug it in one of the equations to find x's value.

y=-6\\ \\ 4x-2y=48\\ \\ 4x-2\cdot -6=48\\ \\ 4x+12=48\\ \\ 4x=48-12\\ \\ 4x=36\\ \\ x=\frac { 36 }{ 4 } \\ \\ x=9

Solution ;

(9, -6)

Mrs. Nally's swimming pool is 10 feet by 6 feet. She paves the area around it with a sidewalk x feet wide, using 80 square feet
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The sidewalk is 2 feet wide

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the sidewalk is given as 80 square feet

The length and width of pool

including side walks will be;

10 + 2x and 6 + 2x

To get the area of the side walk

That will be area of total minus area of the pool

That will be ;

(10 + 2x)(6 + 2x) - 10(6) = 80

60 + 12x + 20x + 4x^2 - 60 = 80

4x^2 + 32x -80 = 0

x^2 + 8x -20

x^2 + 10x - 2x - 20 = 0

x(x + 10) -2(x + 10) = 0

(x-2)(x + 10) = 0

x = 2 or -10

since width cannot be negative;

The sidewalk is 2 feet wide
