Picture of work attached.
Find the are of the pool by dividing the volume by the depth:
1960 / 4 = 490
The pool is 490 square feet.
Area is found by multiplying the length by the width.
Let the width = X
We are told the length is 2.5X ( 2.5 times longer)
So we now have 2.5x * x = 490
2.5x * x = 2.5x^2
Now we have 2.5x^2 = 490
Divide both sides by 2.5:
x^2 = 490/2.5
x^2 = 196
find X by taking the square root of 196:
x = √196
x = 14
The width is 14 feet
The length is 2.5 * 14 = 35 feet
Answer: A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot the y-intercept (0,-1) and use the slope of 1/4 to find a second point
300=x+1.9x
I got this by dividing the problem into two parts x[the speed of the first half] plus 1.9x [the speed of the second half increased by 1.9] both of those together should give you 300.
I went further and solved this...If you placed 103.5 into this problem for x you should get 300.15!
