Answer:

Part A) The diameter of the rug is [tex]10\ ft[/tex]

Part B) The radius of the rug is [tex]r=5\ ft[/tex]

Part C) The area of the rug is [tex]78.5\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Find the diameter of the rug

we know that

The circumference of a circle (circular rug) is equal to

[tex]C=\pi D[/tex]

where

D is the diameter

we have

[tex]C=31.4\ ft[/tex]

[tex]\pi=3.14[/tex]

substitute the values and solve for D

[tex]31.4=(3.14)D[/tex]

[tex]D=31.4/(3.14)=10\ ft[/tex]

Part B) Find the radius of the rug

we know that

The radius of a circle (circular rug) is half the diameter

we have

[tex]D=10\ ft[/tex]

[tex]r=D/2[/tex]

substitute

[tex]r=10/2=5\ ft[/tex]

part C) What is the area the rug is covering?

The area of the circle (circular rug) is equal to

[tex]A=\pi r^{2}[/tex]

we have

[tex]r=5\ ft[/tex]

[tex]\pi=3.14[/tex]

substitute

[tex]A=(3.14)(5)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A=78.5\ ft^{2}[/tex]
