Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Barrel (storage container) is enclosed in a small square fence.

Since, barrel is touching the surfaces from four sides of the cylindrical barrel.

Length of each side of the square fence = Diameter of the barrel

                                                                   = 2(radius of the barrel)

                                                                   = 2(1.5)

                                                                   = 3 feet

Perimeter of a square = 4(Side of a square)

                                     = 4(3)

                                     = 12 feet

Therefore, Option C will be the correct option.

What is the rate of change <br> x y<br> -2 -6<br> -1 -3<br> 0 0
Natalka [10]
So you subtract their integers by starting from the bottom then coming up to the top. And you just put the numbers in your calculator. Once you’ve got your answer for X and Y, you multiply them both. Which will give you -9/3. Next you divide -9 by 3 and 3 divided by 3. Which will give you -3/1 and just rewrite it as -3. I don’t know if this helps but I hope it does :).
