hope this helps and make me brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

. You have that:

- The homeowner want the length of the swimming pool to be 4 feet longer than its width.

- He wants to surround it with a concrete walkway 3 feet wide.

- He can only afford 300 square feet of concrete for the walkway.

2. Therefore, the tota area is:

At=L2xW2

L2 is the lenght of the walkway (L2=L1+3+3⇒L2=(W1+4+6)⇒L2=W1+10).

W2 is the width of the walkway (W1+3+3⇒W2=W1+6)

3. The area of the walkway is:

A2=At-A1

A2=300 ft²

4. Therefore, you have that the width of the swimming pool is:

A2=(W1+10)(W1+6)-(W1+4)(W1)

300=(W1²+6W1+10W1+60)-(W1²+4W1)

W1²+16W1+60-W1²-4W1-300=0

12W1-240=0

W1=240/12

W1=20 ft

5. And the length is:

L1=W1+4

L1=20+4

L1=24 ft
