Answer :
Answer:
(A) x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
- The length of the pool is 20 feet,
- The width is (20 minus x) feet; and
- The area of the pool is 300 square feet.
Area = Length X Width
300 =20(20-x)
Opening the bracket on the right hand side
300 =400-20x
20x=400-300
20x=100
Divide both sides by 20
x=5
The value of x=5
