A rectangular swimming pool that is 10 ft wide by 16 ft long is surrounded by a cement sidewalk of uniform width. If the area of
the sidewalk is 155 ft2, what is its width? A = lw
1 answer:
Let 's x the width of the sidewalk.
Area of the swimming pool= 10*16=160 (ft²)
Area of the sideway+the swimming pool= (16+2x)*(10+2x) =160+155
==>160+20x+32x+4x²=160+155
==>4x²+52x-155=0
Δ=52²+4*4*155=5184=72²
==>x=(-52+72)/2=5/2 or x=a negative to exclude.
Width of the sideway=5/2 ft
so tell me if i helped

Answer:
58.09 degrees C.
Step-by-step explanation:
T(m)=21+74*10^-0.03m
When m = 10 minutes:
T(10) = 21 + 74*10^(-0.03*10)
= 21 + 74*10^(-0.3)
= 58.0879
