Molly's alarm clock fell to the floor and the glass face was broken. Molly measured the glass face so that she could order a new one. The radius of the circle-shaped glass face is 5 centimeters. What is the approximate area of the glass face? (Use 3.14 for .) 31.4 cm2 314 cm2 78.5 cm2 15.7 cm2
@inowalst
The radius is half of the diameter. Double the radius. Then multiply that by 3.14.
idk
what is half the radius
It says the radius is 5. Double 5. What do you get?
55
5^2 * pi =...?
If you double 5.. Double means 2. Multiply 5 times 2. What do you get?
10
Good. Now multiply that times 3.14.
\[5^{2} \times \]
No. 5 to the second power is 5 times 5 which is 25. We need to find, 5 times 2.
78.5
Used the equation editor wrong
Meh, i hate my internet, -_-. Ino is right
@logan13 Did you multiply 10 times 3.14? The answer is not 78.5.
yes it is
10 times 3.14 is not 78.5. Think of the 10 as a 1, without the zero. Your answer is 3.14, but you have to move the decimal one place to the left. Your answer is 31.4.
