Hello!

To solve this, lets put it into a system of equations where w=width and L=length.
2w+2L=80
L-8=w

To solve, we see that w=L-8. We can substitute this in the first equation to find L and then w.

2(L-8)+2L=80
2L-16+2L=80
4L-16+80
4L-16=80
4L=96
L=24

Now that we know L=24, we can find w. 24-8=16. Now we know that L=24 and w=16.

Lets check our answer. In our original system of equations, we have 48+32=80, which is true, and 24-8=16. Also, the perimeter must equal 80. 16+16+24+24=80.

As our final answer, the width of the pool is 16 feet, and the length is 24 feet.

Hope this helps!

What is 12.31 as a mixed fraction
VashaNatasha [74]
12 31/100 is the mixed fraction because in a decimal all the numbers to the left are whole numbers and all the numbers to the right are numbers that are part of a whole. Just like in a mixed fraction there is a whole number and a fraction in a mixed number. Since 12 is in the left it is the whole number and since 31 is to the right and in the place value 31 is ending in the hundredths place so that's why the fraction is, 31/100. That's how you came to know that 12 31/100 is the fraction for 12.31.

The amount Lin's sister earns at her part-time job is proportional to the number
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

y = 9.6x

Yes, y is a function of x.

x =  \frac{5}{48} y

Step-by-step explanation:

For a proportional relation, the equation is given by:

y = kx

where k is the unit rate of change.

We were told that, Lin's sister earns $9.6 per hour.

This means k=9.6.

We substitute to get:

y = 9.6x

We could rewrite this as

y(x) = 9.6x

Yes, y is a function of x.

To obtain an equation describing x as a function of y, we solve for x to get:

x =  \frac{1}{9.6} y
