Answer 2

B 12π feet

Answer 3

To find the length of monkey grass needed to go around a circular flower bed, you would use the formula for the circumference of a circle:

Circumference = 2πr

Given that the area is 36π, we can find the radius of the circle:

Area = πr^2
36π = πr^2
r^2 = 36
r = 6

Now, we can find the circumference:

Circumference = 2π(6)
Circumference = 12π

Therefore, you would need 12π feet of monkey grass to go around the circular flower bed. The correct answer is B.
