SInce you need 1.5 feet of overhang, add 3 feet to each axis dimension 1.5 on each side):

Minor Axis = 18 + 3 = 21 feet

Major axis = 25 + 3 = 28 feet


The area of an ellipse is found by multiplying half the minor axis by half the major axis by PI.


1/2 minor axis = 21 / 2 = 10.5

1/2 major axis = 28 / 2 = 14

Using 3.14 for PI

Area = 10.5 x 14 x 3.14 = 147 x 3.14 = 461.6 sq ft

This problem is not as simple as it may appear at first. The area of an ellipse is ...

... A = πab

where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the semi-axes.

Here, it looks like you're expected to choose these to be 1.5 ft longer than half the given axes, so the area of the pool cover is about ...

... A = π(9 ft + 1.5 ft)(12.5 ft +1.5 ft)

... A = 147π ft² ≈ 461.8 ft²

_____

However, adding 1.5 ft of material to an ellipse results in a shape that is <em>not an ellipse</em>, but is slightly larger than the ellipse with the dimensions used above. The area of that may be about 462.5 ft² (found numerically).

Help me with this math for 50 points
Lady_Fox [76]

The hot tub takes in 1,520 watts everyday to keep its water warm. A kilowatt has 1,000 watts (hence kilo means 1,000). 1,520 divided by 1,000 equals 1.520. However, this isn't free electricity - Each kilowatt costs 8 cents or 0.08 of a dollar. 1.520 x 0.08 = 12.160 or $12.16. We aren't done yet! This hot tub runs for 4 months (and we are assuming these months exactly have 30 days each). 4 x 30 = 120. $12.16 x 120 = $1,459.20. In order to keep the hot tub running, you need to pay 1,459.20 for all the kilowatts of electricity it takes.
