Hi,The answer to your question is down belowThe width measures 10 feet.
Let the length be x and the width be <span>x−10</span>.
Since the pool is rectangular:
<span>A=L×W</span>
<span>200=x<span>(x−10)</span></span>
<span>200=<span>x2</span>−10x</span>
<span>0=<span>x2</span>−10x−200</span>
<span>0=<span>(x−20)</span><span>(x+10)</span></span>
<span>x=20and−10</span>
A negative answer is not possible, so the width of the pool is <span><span>(20−10)</span>=10</span> feet.

Answer:
3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the volume of the rectangular prism or a cylinder needs to be
cubic inches. The container being made is a rectangular prism with a height of
inches and length of
inches.
A rectangular prism is a polyhedron with six rectangular faces.
Therefore the required width (w) needed to produce a container with a volume of
cubic inches is given by:
volume of a rectangular prism = height * width * length
Substituting:
=
*
* w
258.75 = 11.5 * 7.5 * w
w = 258.75 / (11.5 * 7.5)
w = 3 inches
The required width is 3 inches
