Determine the area and the volume of a pool that has a depth of 6ft and the shape is a trapezoid with the dimensions of 22ft.,10ft. by 18ft.
\n" ); document.write( "Determine the cost of filling the pool with water if the water costs $5.28 per cubic foot.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "If the trapezoid's base and top are 22 ft and 18 ft, its area is
\n" ); document.write( "(22+18)/2 times 10, = 200 sq feet.
\n" ); document.write( "The volume is the area times the depth, = 200*6 = 1200 cubic feet
\n" ); document.write( "The cost is $5.28*1200 = $6336.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "PS Never pay $5.28 for a cubic foot of water, that's way too much. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
