The circumference of the bike tire above is 83.524 inches. What is the radius of the bike tire? (Use 3.14 for .) A. 262.27 in B.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Option <u>C. 13.3 in</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the required formula to find the radius of the bike tire :

$\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{C_{(Circle)} = 2\pi r}}}$

C = circumference
π = 3.14
r = radius

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the radius of the bike tire :

$\begin{gathered} \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{C_{(Circle)} = 2\pi r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{83.524 = 2 \times 3.14 \times r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{83.524 = 6.28 \times r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{83.524 = 6.28r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{r = \frac{83.524}{6.28}}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{r = 13.3 \: in}}} \\ \\ \qquad \star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{r = 13.3 \: in}}}}}\end{gathered}$
