New flowers are being planted in a circular flower bed with a 14-foot diameter. If each flower requires 1 square foot of space, about how many flowers can be planted? A.308 B.154 C.77 D.66

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First find the area of the flour bed

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

how??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using the equation for the area of a circle \[\pi r ^{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To solve that equation you need the radius Which is half the diameter

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

so 14x3.14?

@Mehek14 can you please help

Mehek (mehek14):

I 'm guessing this is area of a circle?

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

yeah but how????????

Mehek (mehek14):

diameter=14 radius=7 \(\Large{7^2}\)

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

98?

Mehek (mehek14):

\(\Large{3.14 * 49}\)

Mehek (mehek14):

how do you get. 98??

OpenStudy (ashsmashum1290):

153.86

Mehek (mehek14):

so if you round that up, you get 154
