Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The 25ft by 20ft court needs to be covered.

First consider half of the court, meaning 25ft by 10ft.

To cover 25ft by 10ft you can easily place two 13ft by 10ft covers next to each other = 26 ft by 10ft

There is a 1ft overlap, but that seems reasonably acceptable.

If you do the same for the other half, then you will have covered the entire court from the rain.

So in total you need 4 plastic 13ft by 10ft covers, to cover the 25ft by 20ft cord from the rain.

This indicates that the officials will need at least 2 covers of 13ft by 10 ft to cover the court

Data;

  • dimension of court = 25ft by 20ft
  • dimension of cover = 13ft by 10 ft

Area of a Rectangle

Assuming the court is a rectangle from its given dimensions, we can proceed by dividing the dimension of the court by the dimension of the cover

[tex]25ft by 20 ft / 13ft by 10 ft = 2[/tex]

This would give us a value approximately 2.

This indicates that the officials will need at least 2 covers of 13ft by 10 ft to cover the court.
