Answer:

Therefore ,(D) 360π inches.

Explanation:

Given: A tire at the top of a hill starts rolling down the hill. If the diameter of the tire is 36 inches.

To find: How many inches has the tire rolled if it has rotated exactly 10 times down the hill.

Solution : We have given that diameter of tire = 36 inches.

Radius =
(Diameter)/(2)

Radius =
(36)/(2)

Radius = 18 inches.

Circumference of tire = 2 * π radius

Circumference of tire = 2 * π 18

= 36π

We need to rolled the tire 10 times down the hill

then, 10 * 36π = 360π inches.

Therefore ,(D) 360π inches.
