Question

Your parents decide to build a rectangular pool in your backyard. They determine that the length of the pool should be 15 feet longer than the width. If the width of the pool is represented by x, write a simplified expression that would represents the perimeter of the pool. Show your work.

Answer 1

Width = X

Length = X + 15

Perimeter of a Rectangle = 2W + 2L

2(X) + 2(X + 15)

2X + 2X + 30

4X + 30

Answer = 4X + 30

Hope this helps! :)
