Answer:

Part a) The width of parking lot is 87m.

Part b) The length of rectangular pool is 94 m

Explanation:

a) The area of parking lot Area= 8439 m^2

Length of Parking Lot = Length = 97 m

Width of Parking Lot = Width= ?

Area of rectangle = Length * Width

Putting the values,and finding width,

8439 = 97 * Width

=> Width = 8439/97

=> Width = 87 m

So, The width of parking lot is 87m.

b) Perimeter of rectangular pool = Perimeter= 344 m

Width of rectangular pool = Width = 78 m

Length of rectangular pool = Length = ?

The formula for perimeter is:

Perimeter = 2*(Length + Width)

Putting values in the formula:

344 = 2*(Length + 78)

344/2 = Length + 78

172 = Length + 78

=> Length = 172 - 78

Length = 94 m

So, the length of rectangular pool is 94 m.
