Hello!
To solve this, lets put it into a system of equations where w=width and L=length.
2w+2L=80
L-8=w
To solve, we see that w=L-8. We can substitute this in the first equation to find L and then w.
2(L-8)+2L=80
2L-16+2L=80
4L-16+80
4L-16=80
4L=96
L=24
Now that we know L=24, we can find w. 24-8=16. Now we know that L=24 and w=16.
Lets check our answer. In our original system of equations, we have 48+32=80, which is true, and 24-8=16. Also, the perimeter must equal 80. 16+16+24+24=80.
As our final answer, the width of the pool is 16 feet, and the length is 24 feet.
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
ok
$50
$15 + $35 (5 weeks) = $50
$35 + $15 (5 weeks) = $50
Answer: $100,000
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Land + Stocks + Bonds + Savings = 100%
+ 0.1x + 
+ 35,000 = 1.00x
= 0.5x + 0.1x + 0.05x + 35,000 = 1.00x
= 0.65x + 35,000 = 1.00x
35,000 = 0.35x
100,000 = x
