Answer:


\large\boxed{\text{C}).\,15\,\text{cm}}

Explanation:

In this question, we're trying to find what the radius of the circular pie is.

In this question, we know that the area of the pie is 706.5 cm²

We can use the area to find our radius.

We would use the formula
r=\sqrt(A)/(\pi) to find the radius.

R= radius

A = Area

Your equation should look like this:


r=\sqrt(706.5)/(\pi)

Now, you will solve.


r=\sqrt(706.5)/(\pi)\\\\\text{You can make it simpler by turning}\, \pi\,\text{into} 3.14\\\\r=\sqrt(706.5)/(3.14)\\\\\text{Divide 706.5 by 3.14}\\\\r=\sqrt225\\\\\text{Now, get the square root of 225}\\\\r=15

When you're done solving, you should get 15.

This means that the radius of the pie is 15 cm.

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!
