The width of the path is 4 meters.
<h3>How to find the width of the path?</h3>
The pool is measuring 8 meters by 26 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform width.
The area of the pool and the path combined is 544 square meters.
Therefore, The dimensions of pool are 8 meters and 26 meters as it is surrounded by a path of uniform width, let the width be x meters and
the dimensions of the pool and the path combined will be
8 + 2x and 26 + 2x and as area is 544 m²
, the equation is
(8 + 2x)(26 + 2x) = 544
208 + 16x + 52x + 4x² = 544
4x² + 68x - 544 + 208 = 0
4x² + 68x - 336 = 0
4(x² + 17x - 84) = 0
x² + 17x - 84 = 0
Hence,
(x - 4)(x + 21)
Therefore,
x = 4 and x = -21
As width of path cannot be negative, it is 4 meters.

For this case we have the following variables:
t = total price
p = price per kilogram
k = number of kilograms of food
We then have that the equation that models the total cost is a linear equation of direct variation.
Where, the slope of the line represents the price per kilogram.
k: is the independent variable
t: it is the dependent variable
The equation is given by:
Answer:
C. t = p × k
A fraction is undefined when the denominator equals 0 so we do this:
x-5≥0
x≥5
This tells us that any number less than 5 will make the fraction undefined
Answer:
x+9=50
Step-by-step explanation:
to find galls height, it tells you to add 9. substitute “gall” for a variable. in this case, 9 is being added to the variable to equal 50.
