Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to factorize the given area of the rectangle as shown;

Given

A(x) = x^2-10x+16

Factorize

A(x) = x²-8x-2x+16

A(x) = (x²-8x)-(2x+16)

A(x) = x(x-8)-2(x-8)

A(x) = (x-2)(x-8)

Since area of a rectangle = length ×width

Hence the binomial that represents the width of the pool is w(x) = x-2

b) If the width of the deck is 17feet

Width = x-2

17 = x-2

x = 17+2

x = 19feet

Get the length

Length = x-8

Length = 19-8

Length = 11

Get the perimeter

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(17+11)

P =2(28)

P = 56feet

Perimeter of the deck is 56feet
