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).

Phoebe wants to get atleast a grade of 90 in the math class. Her grade will be the average of two tests. She scored a 94 on the
marin [14]
First things first, you will have 94 + x. Place those on top of a fraction bar and on the bottom put the two numbers over 2. So you have 94 + x over 2. Then, write the symbol ‘greater than or equal to’ and on the other side place your 90. So, 90 + x over 2 is greater than or equal to 90. This is a difficult thing to write out and explain so I hope this makes sense. :)

Describe how you know that this is a proportional relationship
Deffense [45]

Answer:

(Some textbooks describe a proportional relationship by saying that " y varies proportionally with x " or that " y is directly proportional to x .") ... This means that as x increases, y increases and as x decreases, y decreases-and that the ratio between them always stays the same.
