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

zaharov [31]

Answer:

She can determine that while there is an association between the variables, there is no correlation, and she cannot determine causation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is an arch shape to her graph, we know that as one variable changes, the other changes in the same manner. This means there is an association between the variables.

However, since the graph is not linear, there is no correlation between the variables. Since there is no correlation, we cannot determine causation.
