Circle P has a circumference of approximately 75 inches. Circle P with radius r is shown. What is the approximate length of the radius, r? Use 3.14 for . Round to the nearest inch. 12 inches 24 inches 38 inches 46 inches

Answer :

Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle = 2nr

n = 3.14

r = radius

since we are given the circumference of the circle, the radius can be determined from it

75 = 2 x 3.14 x r

75 = 6.28 x r

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.28

75 / 6.28 = r

r = 11.9 = 12 inches

The approximate radius of this circle is equal to 12.0 inches.

Given the following data:

  • Circumference of a circle = 75 in.
  • [tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex]

To determine the approximate radius of this circle:

How to calculate the circumference of a circle.

Mathematically, the circumference of a circle is given by the formula:

[tex]Circumference = 2\pi r[/tex]

Where:

  • r is the radius of a circle.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]75 = 2 \times 3.14 \times r\\\\75=6.28r\\\\r=\frac{75}{6.28}[/tex]

r = 11.9412.0 inches.
