Apool in the shape of a rectangle has a perimeter of 80feet. the pool is 8 feet less wide than it is long. find the length and width of the pool

The length and width of the pool = 24 ft and 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length of pool be l and width of pool be w.

A pool in the shape of a rectangle has a perimeter of 80feet.

Perimeter of pool = 2 x ( l + w ) = 80 feet

That is

       l + w  = 40 ft eqn 1.

The pool is 8 feet less wide than it is long.      

      l = 8 + w

       l - w  = 8 ft eqn 2.      

eqn 1 + eqn 2

        2 l = 48

         l = 24 ft

Substituting

         24 + w = 40

         w = 16 ft

The length and width of the pool = 24 ft and 16 ft

pretty sure 750 each month!

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
