Answer:
113.04 (6 + g) / 32
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the total area of a cone is:
A = Pi * r * (r + g), let g be the generatrix.
The radius is half the diameter, therefore, 12/2 = 6 feet.
Replacing:
A = 3.14 * (6) * (6 + g) = 113.04 (6 + g) square feet.
To know the total number of tiles package, we must divide the area of the cone by the area occupied by a package. So:
113.04 (6 + g) / 32
The problem statement does not have a height or the value of the generatrix therefore it is not possible to calculate the number of packages.
