Question

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 486 feet. The width of the pool is 35 feet less than the length. Find the length and the width.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Take l=x

So,b=x-35

486=2(b+l)

486=2(x-35)+x

486=2x-70+2x

486+70=2x+2x

556=4x

x=556/4

=139

So,

L=139

B=x-35

=104
