Mario wants to put a rectangular fence around the pool in his backyard. Since one side is adjacent to the house, he will only ne

ed to fence three sides. There is one long side parallel to the house, and two shorter sides. He needs 130 feet of fencing to enclose the pool. The length of the long side is 10 feet less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the pool area to be enclosed.

Answer:

The length and width of the pool area is:

  • Length = 60 feet.
  • Width = 35 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 130-foot fence should enclose only three parts of the pool (two wide and one long), equations are performed to express the information provided.

First an equation that says the total feet in the fence:

  1. X + 2Y = 130 (where X is the length and Y is the width)
  2. X = 2Y-10 (since the length is 10 feet less than twice the width)

With these equations, we proceed to replace the second equation in the first one and solve for Y:

  • X + 2Y = 130
  • 2Y -10 + 2Y = 130
  • 4Y - 10 = 130
  • 4Y = 130 + 10
  • Y = 140/4
  • <u>Y = 35 feet</u>

Since we already know that the width corresponds to 35 feet, we use the second equation to find the value of X:

  • X = 2Y-10
  • X = 2 (35) -10
  • X = 70 - 10
  • <u>X = 60 </u>

With which it is identified that the length is 60 feet.

Pls help me, cause I don't understand one bit of it at all​

Answer:

I promise you this is easier than it looks, just bare with me.

You have to order these numbers from the smallest to the biggest. Now before we do this, we wanna make the fractions and mixed numbers decimals to make this easier.

5 8/11

Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide the numerator by the denominator.  (8 divide by 11).

Add this decimal number to the whole number part of the mixed number. (0.72 plus 5)

It would be 5.72

Now 57/10

The same steps as the last one, but since it isn't a mixed number you don't add anything. (57 divided by 10)

It would be 5.7

Now we have to order them from least to greatest. How do we figure that out? Well lets list the numbers that we have now:

5.72

5.7

5.67

5.726

Now since they all have the same whole number, we just have to look at the numbers after the decimal.  Well the least number we have here is "7". Then it would be 67, then 72, then 726.

So the answer would be from least to greatest:

5.7

5.67

5.72

5.726

I hope this helps..sorry if I took so long I wanted to make sure I explained this as good as I can so you don't keep struggling. Good luck, take care <3

Have a good night/day (:! Much love!
