Answer 2

1. Are the distances of 220 feet and 126 feet the radii, diameters, or circumferences of the two circles? Explain. (2 points)

Circumference because the other two aren’t the correct answers and don’t sound like the correct answers.

2. What is the radius of the circle made by Ana's brother in the blue car? Use 3.14 for π and round your answer to the nearest tenth. Show your work. (2 points)

35 is the radius for the blue car

3. What is the radius of the circle made by Ana's sister in the green car? Use 3.14 for π and round your answer to the nearest tenth. Show your work. (3 points)

20.1 is the radius for the green car

4. What is the difference in the radii of the circles? (3 points)

The difference between both cars radii is that one has a larger radius than the other.
