lions [1.4K]
The total area of pool and border = 361  square feet.

Length of square pool = x

Length of square pool plus border =  (x + 1 +1 ) = x + 2

There is 1 foot length on each side on the x  length.

The other length of the square pool and border =  (x + 2)

Area = (x+2)(x+2)

     (x + 2)(x +2) =  361.            Let A = x +2

        A*A = 361
            A²  = 361    Take square root of both sides
             A  = √361
               A = 19

A = x + 2 = 19
       x = 19 - 2
       x = 17

Area of square pool = x*x = 17*17 = 289

Area of the pool = 289 square feet.

\frac{x + 4}{7} -\frac{x + 3}{x + 5} =\frac{(x + 4)(x + 5)}{7(x + 5)} -\frac{7(x + 3)}{7(x + 5)} =\frac{x(x + 5) + 4(x + 5)}{7(x) + 7(5)} - \frac{7(x) + 7(3)}{7(x) + 7(5)} =\frac{x(x) + x(5) + 4(x) + 4(5)}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 5x + 4x + 20}{7x + 35} -\frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 9x + 20}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{(x^{2} + 9x + 20) - (7x + 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + (9x - 7x) + (20 - 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 2x -1}{7x + 35}
