A family needs to build fencing around their rectangular home and square swimming pool, depicted below.
A rectangle labeled home has its right side labeled (2 + 5 x) yards and its bottom side labeled (3 + 10 x) yards. The square, labeled pool, is smaller than the rectangle. One of its sides is labeled (2x) yards.
The total amount of fencing they need can be written as x + 10.

If x = 5;
The family needs yards of fencing for their home.

The family needs yards of fencing for their pool.

Respuesta :

The total amount of fencing they need = 38x + 10.

Perimeter for the rectangular fencing of the home = 160 yards

Perimeter for the square fencing of the pool = 40 yards

What is the Perimeter of a Rectangle and a Square?

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)

Perimeter of a square = 4(side length).

Perimeter for the rectangular fencing of the home = 2(3 + 10x + 2 + 5x) = 2(15x + 5) = 30x + 10

Perimeter for the square fencing of the pool = 4(2x) = 8x

The total amount of fencing they need = 30x + 10 + 8x = 38x + 10.

If x = 5, then:

Perimeter for the rectangular fencing of the home = 30x + 10 = 30(5) + 10 = 160 yards

Perimeter for the square fencing of the pool = 4(2x) = 8x = 8(5) = 40 yards.
