A rectangular pool is to be built on a lot that measures 20 m by 12 m. A wooden deck of uniform width, equal to the area of the

frutty [35]

The length and breadth(width) of the pool are

$l\approx15.7m\text{ and }b\approx7.7m$

Let

$l=\text{length of the side of the pool}\\b=\text{breadth of the pool side}\\w=\text{the width of the strip of deck surrounding the pool}$

From the question, we can build the following relationships

$l+2w=20\\b+2w=12$

subtracting to eliminate $w$ (we do not even need it!)

$l-b=8\\b=l-8$

we can also build another relationship from the question. Since the area of the strip equals the area of the pool:

$lb+lb=2lb=20\times 12\\lb=120$

We have two unknowns, $l$ and $b$ . Eliminate $b$

$lb=120\\l(l-8)=120\\l^2-8l-120=0$

If we solve the quadratic equation for $l$ , we get

$l=4+2\sqrt{34}\approx 15.7m$

and

$b=l-8\\b=(4+2\sqrt{34})-8\\b=2\sqrt{34}-4\approx7.7m$

The length and breadth(width) of the pool are

$l\approx15.7m\text{ and }b\approx7.7m$
