I need help since day one and need it now really bad.

Answer 1

Hello Dee

 

Your question is missing the value of the diameter (D) OR the radius (r) of the deck.  This value is needed to solve for the area.

 

I am assuming the deck is a circle since the question states to use 3.14 for the value of π.

 

If you find the value of either the diameter or the radius, then you can use the appropriate equation below to solve for the area (A).

 

Area, A = πr²  if the radius is given

 

OR A = πD² / 4  if the diameter is given
