Hello!
To solve this, lets put it into a system of equations where w=width and L=length.
2w+2L=80
L-8=w
To solve, we see that w=L-8. We can substitute this in the first equation to find L and then w.
2(L-8)+2L=80
2L-16+2L=80
4L-16+80
4L-16=80
4L=96
L=24
Now that we know L=24, we can find w. 24-8=16. Now we know that L=24 and w=16.
Lets check our answer. In our original system of equations, we have 48+32=80, which is true, and 24-8=16. Also, the perimeter must equal 80. 16+16+24+24=80.
As our final answer, the width of the pool is 16 feet, and the length is 24 feet.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
3.11
Step-by-step explanation:
[(3.5)(2) + (3)(3+4)] ÷ 9
(7 + 21)/9 = 28/9

Answer:
3rd Option
Step-by-step explanation:
When you find the ratio of the 2 triangles, it is 14/5, so the 2nd option and 4th option are out of the park (The triangles are indeed similar). You are left with options 1 and 3. Option 3 is the best answer as you have to match the vertices of each triangle to each other.
so 21 - 13, the money will be invested for 8 years.
The most reasonable answer would be 2 meters since two meters equals about 6 feet.
