A circle has an area of 9 (pi) in2. Which of the following is the circumference of the circle in terms of pi ((pi))?

A. 12 π in

B. 6 π in

C. 9 π in

D. 3 π in

Answer Explanation:

We need to find the radius of the circle from the given value of area. Then, the radius of the circle will be used to find the circumference of the circle.

The first step is to find the radius, r of the circle as

Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is \(9\pi\ in\ ^2\)is 6  in.

Therefore, the Correct Answer is B.

  • Q #1: The graph below represents the amount of rainfall in a particular state by month. Which of the following is the total rainfall for the first 5 months of the year?

    A. 11 inches

    B. 7.5 inches

    C. 4.5 inches

    D. 3.5 inches

    Answer Explanation

    The first five months of the year are January, February, March, April, and May. We use to graph to find the amount of rainfall in each month as follows:

    In the month of January, rainfall was between o and 1, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in January is 0.5 inches

    On February, rainfall was 1 inch and on March the rainfall was 2 inches.

    On April, the rainfall amount was 4 inches while on month of May, the rainfall was about 3.5 inches. Therefore, total rainfall in the first 5 months was:

    Total rainfall=0.5 inches+1 inches+ 2 inches+4 inches + 3.5 inches =11 inches
