Question

a railroad track goes in a circular pattern around the city if it travels 60 miles around the city what is the distance between the track and the center of the city use 3 for pi

Answer 1

10 miles

Explanation:

The railway track goes in a circular pattern around the city.

The length of the circular path is given by 2πr when the radius is r.

Now, it is given that the length of the railway track is 60 miles.

Therefore, 2πr = 60

⇒ r =
`(60)/(2\pi )` =
`(60)/(2*3)` =10 miles. {Using the value of π as 3.

Hence, the distance between the track and the center of the city i.e. r is 10 miles. (Answer)
