Write as an equation: Sara spent $2 more than Lauren, and together they spent $19.

kupik [55]

Answer:

Equations:

a + b = 19

a = b + 2

a = Money that spent Laura

b = Money that spent Laureen

then:

(b+2) + b = 19

2b + 2 = 19

2b = 19-2

2b = 17

b = 17/2

b = 8.5

a = b + 2

a = 8.5 + 2

a = 10.5

Check:

10.5 + 8.5 = 19

A 10ft by 20ft rectangular swimming pool is surrounded by a walkway of uniform width. If the total area of the walkway is 216ft^

Dmitry [639]

check the picture below.

so, we know the dimensions of the pool, is a 20x10, so its area is simply 200 ft², and we know the walkway is 216 ft², so the whole thing, including pool and walkway is really 200 + 216 ft².

now, as you see in the picture, the dimensions for the combined area is 20+2x and 10+2x, since the walkway is "x" long, therefore,

$\bf \stackrel{length}{(20+2x)}\stackrel{width}{(10+2x)}=200+216\implies \stackrel{FOIL}{4x^2+60x+200}=200+216 \\\\\\ 4x^2+60x=216\implies \stackrel{dividing~by~4}{x^2+15x=54} \\\\\\ x^2+15x-54=0\implies (x+18)(x-3)=0\implies x= \begin{cases} -18\\ \boxed{3} \end{cases}$
