The jonesboro education department decided to celebrate opening a new school by baking one of the biggest chocolate chip cookies ever made. they hired a local bakery to make a cookie with a diameter of 32 feet. what is the area of the surface of a cookie with a diameter of 32 ft? (use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.)

74.6786 m² is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

we know that the diameter (D) of the cookie = 32 ft

Converting dimensions from feet (ft) to meter (m)

1 ft =  0.3048 m

32 ft = 32 × 0.3048

        =  9.7536 m

Step 2 :

To find the surface area of the cookie we have the formula,

Area (A) =  π . r²

Diameter (D) = 32 ft

∴ d = 2r

  d/2 = r (radius)

  32 ÷ 2 = r

 r = 16      16 feet = 4.8768 m

π . r²  = 3.14 × (4.8768)² = 3.14 × 23.783

                                          =  74.6786 m²

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0

0,0
