4-21. Kelso's mom wants to put a floating blanket over the family's circular wading pool to keep the heat in and the leaves out. The pool has a diameter of 10 feet. a. How many square feet of blanket will Kelso's mother need? b. If the pool supply store charges $0.10 per square foot for the blanket, how much will the material for the blanket cost?

a. 78.6 square feet

b. $7.86

Step-by-step explanation:

a. This simply asks us to calculate the area of the 10 feet diameter pool

Formula for area of circle is ;

pi * r^2 = pi * d^2/4

so Area = 22/7 * 10^2/4 = 78.60 square feet

b. This will be the area of the blanket multiplied by the price per square foot of the blanket

Mathematically, we have that as;

78.60 * 0.1 = $7.86

don't report but were is the digram
