Please help ASAP :)! The width of the path is_
meters.

A pool measuring 12 meters by 24 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform width,
as shown in the figure. If the area of the pool and the path combined is 988 square
meters, what is the width of the path?
12 + 2x
12
24
24 + 2x

answer: 32.68

step-by-step explanation:

x=2

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

just sum

10 + 10 = 20

nope lol
