The fountain in the middle of the park is circular and has a diameter of 16 feet. There is a walkway that is 3 feet wide that goes around the fountain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

179 sq feet

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the approximate area of the walkway?

area of walkway = area of walkway +  fountain - area of walkway

Area of a circle = πr²

Where : = π = pi = 22/7

R = radius  

radius of the fountain = 16/2 = 8

area of walkway +  fountain = (22/7) x (8 + 3)^2 = 380.3

area of fountain = 22/7 x 8^2 = 201.1

area of walkway = 179
