Answer: 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
in confused on what the question is asking is it multiple questions
We are asked to solve for the width "x" in the given problem. To visualize the problem, see attached drawing.
We have the area of the swimming pool such as:
Area SP = l x w
Area SP = 10 * 16
Area SP = 160 feet2
Area of the swimming pool plus the sidewalk with uniform width:
Area SP + SW = (10 + x) * (16 + x)
160 + 155 = 160 + 10x + 16x + x2
160 -160 + 155 = 26x + x2
155 = 26 x + x2
x2 + 26x -155= 0
Solving for x, we need to use quadratic formula and the answer is 5 feet.
The value of x is

Answer: 1 1/4feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the depth of the water in the pool changes by −3/4 foot every hour and that the depth of the water was 5 feet when she started draining.
The depth of the water after 5 hours will be:
= 5 - 3/4(5)
= 5 - 15/4
= 5 - 3 3/4
= 1 1/4 feet
Answer:
Perimeter =63 inches
Area = 243in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Length of computer = 18in
Width of computer = 13.5in
From the given data the computer has a rectangular shape
Perimeter of the computer = L+L+W+W= 2L+2W
Perimeter = 2(18)+ 2(13.5)
Perimeter = 36+27=63 inches
Area of rectangular shape = L*W
Area = 18 x 13.5= 243in²
