Answer:

[tex]Total = \$6545[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Base = 17ft[/tex]

[tex]Height = 22ft[/tex]

[tex]Slant\ Height = 32ft[/tex]

[tex]Cost = \$35[/tex] per square ft

Required

Determine the expected spending

First, calculate the area of the pool.

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * Base * Height[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * 17ft * 22ft[/tex]

[tex]Area = 17ft * 11ft[/tex]

[tex]Area = 187ft^s[/tex]

The total cost is:

[tex]Total = Cost * Area[/tex]

[tex]Total = 35 * 187[/tex]

[tex]Total = \$6545[/tex]
