1. Let's call:
x: the width of the walkway.
b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
h: 2x+32 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
2. The area of a rectangle is:
A=(b)(h)
b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)
3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
4x^2+96x-412=0
4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
x=3.71
The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This doesn't really make sense.
All you have to do is pick numbers that fall in between the numbers provided.
like:
a = 11
b = 21
C = 21
There's not really a question . . .
5 kilometers for 10 minutes
60 minutes= 1 hour
30 kilometers divided by 60 minutes=0.5
0.5*10 minutes= 5 kilometers for 10 minutes
