\dfrac{x}{2.5}=\dfrac{x+2.4}{2.5+2}\\
\dfrac{x}{2.5}=\dfrac{x+2.4}{4.5}\\
4.5x=2.5(x+2.4)\\
4.5x=2.5x+6\\
2x=6\\

A pool measuring 10 meters by 26 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform​ width, as shown in the figure. If the area of the po
igomit [66]

Based on the measurements of the pool and the path of uniform width, the area of the width and length of the path can be found to be 28.8 meters.

<h3>How to find the width and length?</h3>

First, find the area of the pool:

= Length x Width

= 10 x 26

= 260 meters ²

The area of the path can therefore be found to be:

= Total area of pool and path combined - Area of pool

= 1,092 - 260

= 832 meters²

Seeing as the path has uniform width, that means that the width is the same and the length so the width and length of the pool is:
= √area of the path

= √832

= 28.8

In conclusion, the width and length of the path are 28.8 meters.

Is this a polygon? [(3x+12)•(4x+4)]-(3x+8)-(4x)=
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Not a polygon

Step-by-step explanation:

[(3x+12)•(4x+4)]-(3x+8)-(4x)

[12x² + 12x + 48x + 48] - 3x - 8 - 4x

12x² + 60x + 48 - 7x - 8

12x² + 53x + 40

This is a degree 2 (quadratic) polynomial, not a polygon.

A polygon is an n-sided figure.

Example: A rectangle --> A four-sided polygon
