Shasta pools is building my pool. I want the pool to be 8ft longer that it is wide and I want it to cover 240 square ft. Which equations would I use to model the area of the pool? *

area = w² + 8w

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for calculating the area of something is:

area = length x width

length = 8 + width

area = (8 + width) x width

I will use w instead of width

area = w² + 8w

we can solve for w:

240 = w² + 8w

w² + 8w - 240 = 0

(w - 20) x (w + 12) = 0

so we know that the length of the pool is 20 feet and the width is 12 feet

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.

the answer is 54 sq. ft. i just did this question, on odyssey ware, and it was right. make brainliest.
