Joe made a scale drawing of the community pool in his town. the pool has a perimeter of 77 meters, what is the length and width
viva [34]

Answer:

The length of the pool is 28 meters and the width of the pool is 10.5 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the scale drawing of Joe, the community pool has (length : width) = 8 : 3

Let the actual length of the pool is 8x meters and the actual width is 3x meters.

Now, given that the actual pool has a perimeter of 77 meters.

So, 2(8x + 3x) = 77

⇒ 22x = 77

⇒ x = 3.5

So, the length of the pool is 8x = 8(3.5) = 28 meters and the width of the pool is 3x = 3(3.5) = 10.5 meters. (Answer)
