A basketball court is being painted. The entire section below will be painted blue. Determine how many square feet of paint will be used

145.12 ft squared will be painted blue.
So the answer is B.

Explanation:

The area of the rectangle is 120 ft2 because 8 ft x 15 ft = 120 ft2

The area of the semi-circle is
because 3.14 x 4 (the radius) squared (or 16) is 50.24, then you divide it by 2 since it’s a semi-circle. 50.24 divided by 2 is 25.12.

Then you add the areas:

120 ft squared + 25.12 ft squared = 145.12 ft squared
