Applying the area of a rectangle, the width of the walkway (x) is: 4 feet.
<h3>What is the Area of a Rectangle?</h3>
Area of a rectangle = (length)(width)
Total area of the pool and walkway = 300 sq. ft
Length of the pool and walkway = 12 + 2x
Width of the pool and walkway = 7 + 2x
Thus, we will have the equation of the total area as:
(12 + 2x)(7 + 2x) = 300
4x² + 38x + 84 = 300
4x² + 38x + 84 - 300 = 0
4x² + 38x - 216 = 0
Factorize
(x - 4)(2x + 27) = 0
x = 4
or
x = -27/2
The width, x, cannot be negative, so, the width of the walkway (x) would be 4 feet.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a right triangle as it has a right angle (you can draw a little square to show that).
It's side are already recorded, so I tried my best, though I'm not sure it's correct.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
2/4 +6/8 =5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
In standard form it would be x + 2y = 8.
x + 2y = 8
2y = -x + 8
y = -1/2x +4
