1. Let's call:
x: the width of the walkway.
b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
h: 2x+32 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
2. The area of a rectangle is:
A=(b)(h)
b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)
3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
4x^2+96x-412=0
4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
x=3.71
The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
ANSWER
1.39
EXPLANATION
The given quadratic equation is

This is the same as,

Comparing to

We have
a=2, b=3,c=-8
Using the quadratic formula, the solution is given by:

We substitute the values to get,


The positive root is

to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
This is a function and it's because there's only one input for every output.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: Although 5 and 1 both point to the same number this doesn't take away the validity of the function. :)
1: square root of 2
2: cube root of 2, squared
3: square root of 3, squared
4: cube root of 3
hopefully this helps you :)
