Question

How do you solve this? this is 7th grade math.

Answer 1

Explanation:

area covered by grass = area of rectangle + area of 2 semi-circles

sides of rectangle, length = 500ft

width = 102ft

let area covered by grass be x

x = (length*width) + area of 2 semicircles

x = 500*102 + area of 2 semicircles

x= 51,000 + area of 2 semicircles

we can say diameter of the semicircles is equal to the width of the rectangle = 102ft

therefore, radius = 51ft

x= 51,000 + area of 2 semicircles

x = 51,000 + pi(radius^2)

x = 51,000 + 3.14(2601)

x = 51,000 + 8,167.14

x = 59,167.14 ft
