diameter of the circle must be 16 feet then radius=r=8 feet\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Area =r^2pi where pi=3,14159 aprox
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "A=8^2pi=201,062 ft2 (aprox)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer:the area of the circle is 201.062 ft2 (aprox)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1pint covers 60 ft2
\n" ); document.write( "x pints covers 201,062 ft2
\n" ); document.write( "x=201.062/60=3.351 (aprox)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: 3.351 pints of paint are needed to complete the job\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "each pint costs $6.95 the total cost is 6.95(3.351)=23.29 (aprox)
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: the cost of the paint needed is $23.29 aprox)
\n" ); document.write( "
