Algebra.Com's Answer #144137 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Circumference(C) equals Pi*Diameter(D) or C=Pi*D\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If we increase the diameter by 5*2=10 feet, then we increase the circumference by pi*10 feet or approximately 31.4ft\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "C1=Pi*D1-------feet travel----------eq1 \n" ); document.write( "C2=Pi(D1+10)---head travel---------eq2\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "subtract eq1 from eq2 \n" ); document.write( "C2-C1=Pi*10\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps----ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
