The length of a rectangular swimming pool is 3 times its width. The pool is surrounded by a cement walk 3 feet wide. The area of the walk is 756 square feet. Find the dimensions of the pool.
What You Get
Given: Walk Area = 756 FEETē Given: Walk Width = 3 FEET Given: Pool Length-Width Formula: L = 3W Find x = Walk Width Let L = Pool Length Let W = Pool Width Let A = WalkArea (L+2x)(W+2x)=LW + A (L+2*3)(W+2*3)=LW+756 LW + 6L + 6W + 36= LW + 756 6L + 6W = 720 18W + 6W = 720 24W = 720 W = 30 FEET L = 3 * 30 L = 90 FEET
Solution: Length = 90 Feet
