Acircular pool with a diameter of 18 ft will have a uniform 4 ft concrete walkway poured around it. if the concrete cost $4.25 a square foot, how much will it cost for the concrete?
a. $1,714.07
b. $1,247.08
c. $276.40
d. $1,174.70

$1,174.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A circular pool with a diameter of 18 ft will have a uniform 4 ft concrete walkway poured around it.

To Find: If the concrete cost $4.25 a square foot, how much will it cost for the concrete?

Solution:

A circular pool has  diameter of 18 ft will have a uniform 4 ft concrete walkway   around it.

So radius = diameter /2 =18/2 =9 feet

Thus Area of circular pool = =

Use π =3.14

  Thus Area of circular pool =  

                                             =  

                                             =  254 . 37 square feet

Since the Radius of the pool with concrete = 9 + 4= 13

So, Area of circular pool with concrete=  

                                             =  

                                             =  530.66 square feet

Now surface area of concrete = area of pool with concrete - area of pool

Surface area of concrete= 530.66 - 254.34 = 276.32 square feet

If the concrete cost $4.25 a square foot of surface area,

So the cost for the concrete of  276.32 square feet  =  276.32 * 4.25 = $ 1174.36

The option close to our answer is $1,174.70

Thus Option D is correct
