Aswimming pool is 15 by 30 feet and a consistent 5 feet deep. you are painting the walls and floor of the pool. if a gallon can of paint covers 250 square feet, how many gallon cans would you need to buy

the bottom of the pool is 15 x 30 = 450 sq feet.

 you the have 2 walls that are 30 x 5 = 150 x 2 = 300 square feet

 then 2 walls that are 15 x 5 = 75 x 2 = 150 square feet

 for a total of 450 +300 +150 = 900 square feet

 1 can covers 250 sq ft

so 900/250 = 3.6

 so you would need 4 cans of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +2x -49278

(x-220.9887385)(x+222.9887385)

x= 220.988 or -222.988
