Let x equal the width.  Since the length of the base is 96 yards, multiply that times 2 for 192.  Then using the parameter formula 2w+2b=P, you get 2x+192=356.  Subtract both sides by 192, then divide by 2.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The first pump empties half the pond in 3 hours, so in 1/6 that time (1/2 hour), it empties (1/6)·(1/2) = 1/12 of the pond.

The second pump empties the other 5/12 of the pond in that half hour, so has a pumping rate of (1/2 h)/(5/12 pond) = (6/5 h)/pond.

The second pump could do the entire job alone in 1 hour and 12 minutes.

ohaa [14]

Raising a whole number to a power means: 

             Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
             take that big number of things a number of times again.

Raising a fraction to an exponent means: 

             Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
