Question 316830
The length of a rectangular swimming pool is 15 feet longer than the width. If the perimeter is 82 feet, then what are the length and the width (in feet)?
-----
Length = Width+15
---------------------------
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
82 = 2(W+15 + W)
41 = 2W + 15
2W = 26
Width = 13 feet
---
Length = 13+15 = 28 feet
