No, that is not true. The absolute value is the distance a number is from zero. The distance of -9 to 0 is 9. 9 is not less than 4.
2(3.14)r = Circumference
r = d/2
r = 43
2 x 3.14 x 43 = 270.04 cm
Here are the answer: a) R = 3.6 and b) A = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
R is inversely proportional to A.
R ∝ 
so, R =
-------eq 1 where k is any constant
To find the values of a) R when A = 5 and
b) Value of A when R = 9
Now,
Putting R = 12 and A = 1.5 in eq 1 we get,
12 = 
or, k = 12×1.5 = 18
From eq 1 we get,
R =
--------- eq 2
Now,
a) Putting A= 5 in eq 2 we get,
R =
= 3.6
b) Putting R = 9 in eq 2 we get
R =
or, A =
= 2
