Answer:

8,5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the form

x² + y² = (r)²

Is the equation of the circumference

We have for the pool:

x² + y² = 2500 ⇒ x² + y² = (50)²

And for the outside edge of the footpath

x² + y² = 3422,25 ⇒ x² + y² = (58,5)²

So we obtain the radius of each circumference

For the outside edge of the pool r₁ = 50 feet

For the outside edge of the footpath r₂ = 58,5 feet

Then the width of the footpath is 58,5 - 50 = 8,5 feet

Answer:

$\frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have completed $5$ questions, you still have $25-5=20$ more questions to answer. We need to find what fraction $20$ is of $25$ , if that makes sense. A fraction is simply a part over a whole. In this case, the part is $20$ and the whole is $25$ . Therefore, the fraction we are looking for is $\frac{20}{25}$ , which simplifies to $\frac{4}{5}$ . Hope this helps!
