Question 73616: I am having a real hard time with this word problem. Thanks.
A semicircular window of radius 15 inches is to be laminated with a sunblock coating that costs $0.85 per square inch to apply. What is the total cost of coating the window, to the nearest cent? (Use p = 3.14. Hint: Area of Circle: A = prē) Answer by joyofmath(189) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The area of the semicircular window is half of what the area would be if the window were a whole circle. The area is thus = = . Replace p with 3.14 and the area of the semicircle = = = 353.25 square inches. The cost per square inch = $0.85 so the total cost = = $.
