Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x feet.

Therefore, length = 2x - 10

Perimeter of rectangle = 52

2(2x - 10 + x) = 52 \\ 2(3x - 10) = 52 \\ \therefore \:  3x - 10 =  \frac{52}{2} \\ \therefore \:  3x - 10 = 26\\ \therefore \:  3x = 26 + 10\\ \therefore \:  3x = 36 \\ \therefore \:  x =  \frac{36}{3} \\ \therefore \:  x =  12 \\ \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \: width \: of \: rectangle = 12 \: feet }}

Answer:

Statement 1 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take t^2 - 16t + 55 and find some of its graphical values, you will get:

Turning point: (8,-9)

Roots: (5,0) and (11,0)

When this graph is plotted and you imagine the x axis to be time (as stated in the question), each of the roots (x - intercept) must be when the swimmer goes under and when they come back up.

This means that the swimmer dived under the water at 5 seconds and came back up at 9, making the first 2 statements correct.

Now the fourth statement is ruled out.

The fifth statement is not plausible as the graph would have to have more than 2 roots for the swimmer to enter the water twice.

That leaves the third statement. If you imagine the depth of the swimmer to be the y axis of our imaginary graph, and we know that the y axis of the turning point is -9, that means that the swimmer's deepest dive was 9 feet under the water, ruling out the third statement too.

Hope this helps :D
