Answer:
There is no specific linear equation for this scenario because there is only one possible length for the pole.
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of a circle of diameter 13 m is 13π m, about 40.82 m.
(40.82 m)/(2.5 m) = 16.328
16 may be the best approximation of the number of pieces Malia will need. 17 pieces will make a barrier that is longer (larger diameter) than is needed.
I can help with the formula just do the math on a calculator you multiply length x width x height
