Answer:

12 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the area of the pool be Length×width

There will be 2lengths and 2widths as well so the perimeter of the pool will be the addition of all the sides of the pool i.e 2L + 2W = 96... (1)

And since the length of the pool is 3 times its width, we have

L = 3W... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1 to get the width 'W'

2(3W) + 2W = 96

6W + 2W = 96

8W = 96

W = 96/8

W = 12feets

The width of the pool is 12feets

The zurassic zoo charges $11 each for adult admissions and $4 each for each child. The total bill for the 138 people from a scho
LenaWriter [7]

The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults and

y be the number of children

then according to the given conditions

x+y = 138\ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\11x+4y = 839\ \ \ Eqn\ 2

From equation 1:

x = 138-y

Putting in equation 2

11(138-y)+4y = 839\\1518-11y+4y = 839\\1518 -7y = 839\\-7y = 839-1518\\-7y = -679\\

Dividing both sides by -7

\frac{-7y}{-7} = \frac{-679}{-7}\\y = 97

Putting y = 97 in equation 1

x+ 97 = 138\\x = 138-97\\x = 41

Hence,

The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

The equation-4 - x = -13 has the solution
liq [111]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-4 - x = -13

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Add 4 to both sides:</u> -x = -9

<u>Divide both sides by -1:</u> x = 9

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>

-4 - 9 = -13

-13 = -13
