Question

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 meter. Its length is 2 meter more than twice its breadth. What are the length and breadth of the pool?

Answer 1

Answer:

52m, 25m

Step-by-step explanation:

let b be x and l be 2x+2

p = 2 (l+b)

  = 2 (2x+2 + x)

154 = 4x + 4 + 2x

      = 6x + 4

150 = 6x

25 = x

length = 2x+2 = 2*25 + 2 = 52m

breadth = x = 25m

Answer 2

Let, breadth be x m.

.'.Length= (2x+2) m.

We know,

Perimeter=2(l+b)

or, 154=2(2x+2+x)

or, 154=2(3x+2)

or, 154=6x+4

or, 6x =154-4

or, x =150/6

.'.x=25 m

Breadth = 25 m.

Length= (2×25 +2)m

=52 m.
