The area of a rectangular pool was 120square meters. if the long side in 7 meters plus a number and the width is 6 meters. what is the value of the variable?

The value of the variable=13 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Express the dimensions of the pool

Length=7+x

width=6

Step 2

Express the area of a rectangle as shown;

A=L×W

where;

A=area of a rectangle

L=length of the rectangle

W=width of the rectangle

In our case;

A=120 m²

L=x+7

W=6

replacing in the equation;

120 m²=(x+7)×6

120=6 x+42

6 x+42=120

6 x=120-42

6 x=78

x=78/6

x=13

The value of the variable=x=13 meters

the 3rd option is right

step-by-step explanation:

angle addition postulate

2x=56
