Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
pool length : 10 yards
pool width : 8 yards
Area = 10 yds * 8 yds = 80 yd²
(10 + 2x)(8 + 2x) = 120
10(8 + 2x) + 2x(8+2x) = 120
80 + 20x + 16x + 4x² = 120
4x² + 36x + 80 - 120 = 0
4x² + 36x - 40 = 0
4(x² + 9x - 10) = 0
4(x + 10)(x - 1) = 0
x + 10 = 0
x = -10
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
the width of the deck is 1 yard
Answer:
Equation to represent the situation = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Initial investment = Y
Growth rate (r) = 5% = 5 / 100 = 0.05
Number of year (n) = X year
Amount after X year = $800
Find:
Equation to represent the situation:
Computation:

Equation to represent the situation = 
-x + 5y = 8
multiply this equation by 3
-3x + 15y = 24
now add it to the other equation ( elimination)
-3x + 15y = 24
3x + 7y = -2
-----------------------
0x + 22 y = 22
divide each side by 22
y =1
substitute into -x + 5y =8 to find x
-x + 5(1) = 8
-x + 5 = 8
-x =3
divide by -1
x =-3
