Answer:
Hence the length of the longer sides of the pool is 20 feet.
Explanation:
Given,
perimeter of swimming pool = 72 feet
Short side of the pool = 16 feet
We need to find the length of the longer side of the pool.
Perimeter = 2 (l + b)
72 = 2 (l + 16)
72 ÷ 2 = (l + 16)
36 = (l + 16)
36 – 16 = l
20 = l
Hence the length of the longer sides of the pool is 20 feet.
