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

Write a simplified expression using exponents that represents the area of the square.
olganol [36]

Answer:

The area of the square is 25d^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given square, the length of the side = 5d.

Area of a square = side × side

Given: Side = 5d

Now plug in side 5d in the above area formula, we get

Area of the square = 5d × 5d

= 25d^{2}

Therefore, the answer is 25d^{2}.

NemiM [27]

Options :

B) 60 ÷ 12

C) 60⟌12

Total cost of inviting 12 guests to a party = $60

To obtain the cost per guest :

Total cost of invitation / number of guests

That is ; we divide the cost of inviting the guests by the number of guests invited

$60 / 12 = 12⟌60

The expression 60⟌12 is incorrect as this means 12 / $60
