Amy wants to construct a fence around her sand -box.

the sand -box is circular in shape with a diameter of 3 ft.

what is the length of fencing material she will need to fence one complete circle around her sand -box?

(use 3.14 for the value of ∏ (pi))

9.42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance around the edge of a circle is called the circumference.  The formula for circumference is C = dπ   where d is the diameter.  We are given

d = 3, so we have C = 3π.  We are told to use 3.14 for pi, so we have

C = 3(3.14) = 9.42

the dimensions are:

step-by-step explanation:

we want to find the dimensions of a rectangular box with volume of

we factor to obtain;

we rewrite the rightmost factor to obtain;

recall that:

we apply difference of two squares formula to obtain;

hence the dimensions are
