We have to deal with the distance in more detail
If the turtle is 11 times faster than the snail, the amount of distance he will cover is 11 times more.
d/(360 - d) = 1/11
11d = 360 - d
12d = 360
d =  30  The Snail covers 30 meters. The turtle covers 11*30 = 330 meters.

Answers
Rate of snail = 30 meters / 40 minutes = 3/4 meter / minute
Rate of turtle = 330 meters / 40 minutes = 8.25 meters / minute.

Elizabeth has a swimming pool at home. She wants to build a deck all the way around her rectangular swimming pool. The width of
galben [10]

Using the perimeter of a rectangle, it is found that she can make a deck of 122 ft wide.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by:

P = 2(l + w)

In this problem:

  • She has enough wood to build a deck that is 280ft, hence P = 280.
  • The length is of 10 feet, hence l = 10.
  • Considering that the deck's width will be added to the actual width of 8 feet, we have that w = 8 + w.

Then:

P = 2(l + w)

280 = 2(10 + 8 + w)

36 + 2w = 280

2w = 244

w = \frac{144}{2}

w = 122

She can make a deck of 122 ft wide.
