    Step-by-step explanation:

    The length of the pool is 4 meters more than its width

    Let x and (x + 4m) represent the width and length respectively

    x (x+4m) = 192 m^2

    solving for x

    x^2 + 4m - 192 m^2 = 0

    factoring

    (x+16) (x-12) = 0 |OR x+=+%28-4+%2B-+28%29%2F%282%29 + using Quadratic Formula

    (x+16) = 0 tossing out negative solution for measure

    (x-12) = 0 x = 12m, the width. The length is 16m (12m+4m)

    Answer: length is 52 and width is 44

    Step-by-step explanation: I divided 192 into 4 which equals 48 ... but since it's a rectangle you would have to subtract 4 from 48 twice and add 4 to 48 twice.

    48+4=52

    48+4=52

    48-4=44

    48-4=44
