The school is planting a circular garden. If the
diameter of the garden is 6 ft, what is the garden's area to
the nearest tenth of a square foot?

The area of the circular garden is 28.3 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that the area of a circle is π * r², therefore if the diameter of the circular garden is 6 feet, the area is:

Diameter = 6 feet ⇒ radius = (6/2) = 3 feet

Area of the circular garden = π * 3²

Area of the circular garden = 3.1416 * 9

Area of the circular garden = 28.2744

Area of the circular garden = 28.3 square feet

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
