Question

Tori went to see a monster truck show at the local arena before the show Tori got to see the truck up close he noticed that each tire monster truck tire has a radius of about 6 feet Based on that radius what would be the distance around each tire

Answer 1

The distance around each tire is 37.7ft.

Explanation:

The distance around a tire is its circumference which is given by the equation

`c =2\pi r`,

where
`c` is the circumference,
`r` is the radius, and
`\pi \approx 3.14`.

Now the radius of the tire was observed by Tori to be 6 feet; therefore, the circumference
`c` will be

`c = 2 (3.14) (6 ft )\\\\\boxed{c = 37.7ft}`

Thus, the distance around each tire is 37.7ft.
