Answer 1

Hey there! :)

Answer:

≈ $41330

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding the area of the racetrack by subtracting the area of the smaller circle from the larger one.

Calculate the areas of the circles using: A = πr²

Larger circle:

A = π145²

A = 21025π = 66018.5 ft²

Smaller circle:

A = π80²

A = 6400π = 20096 ft²

Subtract the smaller from the larger of the areas:

66018.5 - 20096 = 45922.5 ft²

Divide this by 100 to solve for the amount of asphalt needed:

45922.5 / 100 = 459.225.

Since asphalt costs $90 dollars per 100 ft², then:

459.225 · 90 = $ 41330.25 ≈ $41330 rounded.
