Question

The bicycle tire has a radius of 13 inches. What distance will the tire have traveled in a straight line after 1 revolution. Round to the nearest tenth of an inch

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the distance traveled in a straight line after one revolution, you can use the formula for the circumference of a circle. The circumference (C) is given by:

C=2πr

where

r

r is the radius of the circle

In this case, the radius (r) of the bicycle tire is given as 13 inches. Plug this value into the formula:

C=2π×13

C ≈ 81.6814 inches

Rounding to the nearest tenth of an inch, the distance traveled is approximately 81.7 inches.
