A Swimming pool is in the shape of a rectangular prism. the pool is 5 ft deep. Its length is 3 times its width. The volume of th
e pool is 6000 cubic feet.
Find the length and width of the pool
Find the length and width of the pool
1 answer:
To solve for the width and the length of the pool, you will use the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism. You will represent the length and the width of the pool in terms of w, the width.
Please see the attached picture for the work.
The width of the pool is 20 feet.
The length of the pool is 3 x 20 ft or 60 feet.
Please see the attached picture for the work.
The width of the pool is 20 feet.
The length of the pool is 3 x 20 ft or 60 feet.

To determine the degree of a polynomial, you look at every term:
- if the term involves only one variable, the degree of that term is the exponent of the variable
- if the term involves more than one variable, the degree of that term is the sum of the exponents of the variables.
So, for example, the degree of is 55, while the degree of
is
Finally, the term of the degree of the polynomial is the highest degree among its terms.
So, is a degree 2 polynomial (although it only has one term)
similarly, is a degree 3 polynomial: the first two terms have degree 3, because they have exponents 2 and 1.
