Answer:
Let x = the length
Let P = the perimeter of the first pool
48 = (1/3)P
144 feet = P
P = 2l + 2w
144 = 2x + 2(24)
144 = 2x + 48
96 = 2x
48 feet = x

Answer:
I got 8, but I'm not sure.
Step-by-step explanation:
So I first did -6 + 5, and I got -1 as an answer. Then I did -1 plus 9 because both sides need to be equal. I wrote that x = 8 but that wasn't an option. I'm not sure if this was helpful and I'm really sorry if it's not.
Answer:
Son's age = 24 years
Man's age = 48 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take the age of son as x
Man's age = 2x
Twelve years ago,
Son's age= x-12
Man's age= 2x-12
Man is three times as old as his son so,

Solving for x,
2x-12(1) = x-12(3)
2x-12 = 3x-36
2x-3x = -36+12
-x = - 24
x = 24
So if we substitute the values we get,
Son's age = 24 years
Man's age = 48 years
Hope you understand :)
