Answer:
here it's your solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
Let the breadth of the pool be x m.
Then, the length of the pool = \left(2x+2\right) m.
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
\Rightarrow\ 154\ =\ 2\left(2x+2+x\right)
\Rightarrow\ \frac{154}{2}=\frac{2\left(2x+2+x\right)}{2}
[Dividing both sides by 2]
\Rightarrow\ 77\ =\ 3x\ +\ 2
\Rightarrow\ 77-2=3x+2-2
[Subtracting 2 from both sides]
\Rightarrow\ 75=3x
\Rightarrow\ \frac{75}{3}=\frac{3x}{3}
[Dividing both sides by 3]
\Rightarrow25=x
\Rightarrow\ x=\ 25\ m
Hence, length of the pool = 2x + 2
2 x 25 + 2 = 50 + 2 = 52 m
And, breadth of the pool = 25 m.
