The length of a rectangular pool is 6 meters less than twice the width. If the pool's perimeter is 126 meters, what are its dimensions?
In a film, the actor Charles Coburn plays an elderly "uncle" character criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 20 years time I shall only be twice her age." How old is the "uncle" and the woman?
A rectangular swimming pool is 12 meters long and 8 meters wide. A tile border of uniform width is to be built around the pool using 120 square meters of tile. The tile is from a discontinued stock (so no additional materials are available) and all 120 square meters are to be used. How wide should the border be? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter. If zoning laws require at least a 2 -meter-wide border around the pool, can this be done with the available tile?
In Exercises \(170-173\), determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. Any quadratic equation that can be solved by completing the square can be solved by the quadratic formula.
Exercises \(177-179\) will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. If \(-8\) is substituted for \(x\) in the equation \(5 x^{\frac{2}{3}}+11 x^{\frac{1}{3}}+2=0\) is the resulting statement true or false?
