d = 15m
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
Is there a pic?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nope, that is all the information i have.
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
ok well the formula for a circle is C=2πr
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
But since its diameter you just divide the diameter

so it would be C=2π7.5
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
Which equals 47.1
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
That should be your answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I am confused... where did you get the radius?
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
The radius is half of the diameter

\[7.5\times2=15\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and shouldn't the equation be \[C=\pi*d\]
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
When you just have the diameter you just divide it by 2 to get the radius
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
Nope the formula Is C=2πr
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
The radius is half of the diameter

Your problem gave us the diameter so to find the radius we needed to divide the diameter by 2
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
Giving us 7.5 since the diameter is 15
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay...
OpenStudy (dani_rose):
Are you still confused?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah... but math is always confusing
