Circle A has a diameter of 8 inches, a circumference of 25.12 inches, and an area of 50.24 square inches. The diameter of circle

B is 3 inches, the circumference is 9.42 inches, and the area is 7.065 square inches.
Part A: Using the formula for circumference, solve for the value of pi for each circle.
Part B: Use the formula for area and solve for the value of pi for each circle.

Part C: What observation can you make about the value of pi for circles A and B?

This is the formula for circumference:
C =πd

Substituting the values from circle A, we get this:
25.12 = 8π
π = \frac{25.12}{8}
π = 3.14
 
Using the values from circle B, we get this:
9.42 = 3π
π = \frac{9.42}{3}
π = 3.14

The formula for area is:
A =πr^{2}

Using the values from circle A, we get this (also using r =  \frac{d}{2}):
50.24 = π *  (\frac{8}{2})^{2}
50.24 = π * (4)^{2}
50.24 = 16π
π = \frac{50.24}{16}
π = 3.14

Using the values from circle B, we get this:
7.065 = π *  (\frac{3}{2})^{2}
7.065 = π * \frac{9}{4}
7.065 = \frac{9}{4}π
π = \frac{7.064}{\frac{9}{4}}
π = 3.14

The observation is that π = 3.14, although in reality this is only an approximation to 3 significant figures, since π is a transcendental number.

I hope this helps you

Answer:

the distance from home to hardware store = (3030/60) * 88= 4444miles

time to travel back at a speed of 24mph = 4444miles /24mph = 11110 minutes

Answer: :o I FINALLY MADE IT

(5, 2)

x = 5

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I graphed both equations.  They meet at the points (5,2) and (2,5).  Because y < 5, the solution is (5, 2)
