You are a contractor tasked with building a swimming pool for a client. The client wants a rectangular pool that is 10 feet in length, 5 feet in width, and 3 feet in depth. In order to estimate the cost of materials needed for the pool, you must calculate the surface area of the pool's walls and the volume of water that the pool can hold. This will help you determine the amount of concrete needed for the walls and the amount of water the pool will require to fill.
