Answer:

The Option that gives you more rock for the money is the Circle

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find the area of the circle and the square

[tex]A Circle = \pi *rx^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r= \frac{15}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A Circle = \pi *(7.5)^{2} \\A Circle = 176 Inch^{2}[/tex]

[tex]A Square = 12*12 = 144inch^{2}[/tex]
