What is
Show your thought process.
What is the width of the pool and path around the pool?
What is the length of the pool and path around the pool?
What is the area of the pool and concrete pad, in terms of x?
Knowing that the total area needs to equal 96 square meters, write an equation that would allow us to solve for the unknown dimension of the concrete path. Then solve the equation using factoring.
Match the following quadratics with their factors. Draw out an area diagram to justify your solution for at least one of the matches. Complete the task as a small group.
