A pool measuring 10 meters by 20 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform width if the area of the pool and path combined is 416 square meters what is the width of the path

\n" );
document.write( "Let UNIFORM width of path, be W
\n" );
document.write( "Then width on either end of pool = W + W, or 2W
\n" );
document.write( "Area of pool and path = (2W + 10)(2W + 20), and area of pool and path = 416.
\n" );
document.write( "Thus, (2W + 10)(2W + 20) = 416

document.write( "(W - 3)(W + 18) = 0

document.write( "W, or width of path =  m
