Step-by-step explanation:
x=width of pool
2x=length of pool
the dimensions of the rectangle forming the walkway and the pool are x+4 and 2x+4
the area of this rectangle minus the area of the pool is 196 square feet
(2x+4)(x+4)-(x)(2x)=196
2x^2+4x+8x+16-2x^2=196
combine similar terms
12x+16=196
12x=196-16
12x=180
x=180/12
x=15 feet is the width of the pool
check: 34*19-30*15=196
646-450=196
196=196
The area of the triangle formed by his path is 34971.98 ft sq to the nearest hundredth.
<h3>What is the Heron's formula?</h3>
The Heron's formula is given as;
√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
where s is half the perimeter of the triangle
WE have been given that horse gallops 200ft, turns and trots 350ft, turns again and travels 410ft to return to the point he started from.
Perimeter of the triangle is given as = 200 + 350 + 410 = 960 ft
Semi perimeter = 960 ft/ 2 = 480 ft
Area = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
Area = √480 (480 -200)(480 -350)(480 -410)
Area = √480 (280)(130)(70)
Area = √480 (2548000)
Area = 34971.98
The area of the triangle formed by his path is 34971.98 ft sq to the nearest hundredth.

The complete question is
A horse gallops 200ft, turns and trots 350ft, turns again and travels 410ft to return to the point he started from. What is the area of the triangle formed by his path? round to the nearest hundredth.
The answer is 77 but i don't see it as an option here ;/
The variability measures the closeness of the individual data provided. So, the most reliable sampling is the one with the lowest variability.
For this case, the question with the lowest sampling variability is question 3. Therefore, we can conclude that the answers to which of the questions are most reliable is question 3.
