Q:
\n" ); document.write( "Consider two circles, a larger one and a smaller one. .if the larger one has a radius that is 3 feet larger than that of the smaller circle and the ratio of the circumstances is 2:1, what are the radii of the two circles?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A:
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = radius of smaller circle
\n" ); document.write( "so x + 3 = radius of larger circle
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Api%2A%28x%2B3%29%2F%282%2Api%2Ax%29\" = 2
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B3%29%2Fx\" = 2
\n" ); document.write( "x + 3 = 2x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3
\n" ); document.write( "so x + 3 = 6
\n" ); document.write( "The radii of the circles are 3 ft and 6 ft.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
