The maximum diameter of the spheres he can purchase is 1. 78 ft. Option C
<h3>How to determine the diameter</h3>
The formula for area of a sphere is expressed as;
Area = 4 πr²
If Selim paid $2 per square foot and have a maximum of $20 per square
The area he can purchase is;
= $20/$2
= 10$
Substitute the value into the formula
10 = 4πr²
10 = 4 × 3. 142 × r²
10 = 12. 568r²
Make 'r²' the subject
r² = 10/ 12. 568
r² = 0. 79
Find the square root of both sides
r = √0. 79
r = 0. 89
But diameter = 2(radius)
Diameter = 2 × 0. 89 = 1. 78 ft
Thus, the maximum diameter of the spheres he can purchase is 1. 78 ft. Option C
