Answer: the length is 6 feet. The width is 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden pool is rectangular in shape.

Let L represent the length of the rectangular garden.

Let W represent the width of the rectangular garden.

The area of a rectangle is expressed as L× W. The area of the rectangular garden pond is 12ft^2. It means that

L× W = 12 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The length of the pool needs to be 2ft more than twice that width. This means that

L = 2W + 2 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

W(2W + 2) = 12

2W^2 + 2W = 12

2W^2 + 2W - 12 = 0

W^2 + W - 6 = 0

W^2 + 3W - 2W - 6 = 0

W(W + 3) - 2(W + 3) = 0

W - 2 = 0 or W + 3 = 0

W = 2 or W = - 3

Since the Width cannot be negative, then the width is 2 feet

Substituting W = 2 into equation 2. It becomes

L = 2×2 + 2 = 6 feet

The function f(x) is defined as f(x) = One-third(6)x. Which table of values could be used to graph g(x), a reflection of f(x) ac
a_sh-v [17]

The table of values that could be used to graph g(x), a reflection of f(x) across the x-axis is table (c)

<h3>How to determine the table of values?</h3>

From the question, we have the following equation that can be used in our computation:

f(x) = One-third(6)x

When this statement is represented as an equation, we have the following representation

f(x)= 1/3(6)ˣ

The transformation is given as

A reflection of f(x) across the x-axis

This means that

g(x) = -f(x)

So, we have

g(x) = -1/3(6)ˣ

What this means is that the values of f(x) are negated to get g(x)

The table that represents this is table (c)

Hence, the table of values is table (c)
