Answer: C

Explanation:

Since the radius of a circular playground with 1600 square feet is 22.568, doubling the radius will get you 45.136. So, we can input each choice into the formula for the radius of a circle:

r=
\sqrt{(A)/(\pi )

Through process of elimination, we can see that only a circle with an area of
6400ft^(2) will give us the radius of 45.136.

Sorry for not being as explicit I was rushing a bit. Hope this helps though uwu!
