Question

Help guys but thanks to your help I got a 100 on my homework yesterday .

Answer 1

Easy peasy
1.
d=number of dudes
l=number of ladies
total is 55 so
d+l=55

total cost is 75 so
2d+l=75
multiply first eeuqaiton by -1 and add to second

2d+l=75
-d-l=-55 +
d+0=20

d=20
sub
d+l=55
20+l=55
l=35
35 ladies

disregard how deep the pool is

60 feet long
x wide
P=2(L+W)
P=220
220=2(60+x)
divide 2
110=60+x
minus 60 both sides
50=x
it has to be 50 feet wide




4. monthly over 5 years
