Question

A basketball team is giving a signed basketball to their coach. The ball has a diameter of 14 inches. How much room is there on the ball for the team to write on? Show your work and then your final answer rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer: 153.9 inches sq

Step-by-step explanation: The area of a circle is A= 3.14 times radius squared. Assuming we are finding area, we use this formula. The diameter is 14 so the radius is 7. Seven squared is 49, so we would do 3.14 times 49. This equals 153.86, then rounded is 153.9. I hope that I helped you out a bit!
