    Option 5. Insufficient information

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since the pool is in the form of a rectangle. Therefore opposite sides of the pool are equal.

    Let the length of the pool be x and width of the pool is y feet.

    Jan wants to swim across the diagonal of the pool therefore length of the diagonal will be = √x² + y²

    perimeter of the pool is 16 feet

    2 (x + y) = 160 feet.

    Now to get the length of the diagonal we should know at least one side of the pool.

    Therefore information is insufficient for the calculation.

    Option 5 is correct.
