23. A rectangular swimming pool is 25 feet long and 10 feet wide. It is surrounded by a fence that is x feet from each side of the pool.
a) Draw a diagram.
b) Write equations for the length and the width of the fenced region
c) Write an equation for the area of the fenced region
l = 25 + 2x
w = 10 + 2x
A = (25 + 2x)(10 + 2x)
