The width of the pond shown is x ft. What is the value of x.

Width (x) = 160ft

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given is incomplete as we are not told if the shape of the pond. This is about determining the surface area of a water body.

Looking at the question, we can tell we are to find the width of a pond whose shape wasn't given.

Assuming the shape of the pond is either a rectangular or square pond, let's consider the following question:

The acreage of a rectangular pond is 1.54 acres and the length is 420ft. The width of the pond shown is x ft. What is the value of x.

Find attached the diagram used for solving the question.

Formula for calculating the acreage of

a Square or Rectangular Ponds is multiplying average length (in feet) times average width (in feet) and dividing the result by 43,560 to derive our answer in acres.

That is: Average Length (ft) × Average Width (ft) ÷ 43,560 = Acres

Since we have been given acreage and length, we would make width subject of formula.

Width = (Acreage × 43500)/length

Width (x) = (1.54 × 43,560)/420

=67082.4 ÷ 420 = 159.72

Width (x) = 160ft (nearest feet)
