Consider two circles, a smaller one and a larger one. If the larger one has a radius that is 6 feet larger than that of the smaller circle and the ratio of the circumferences is 4 colon 1, what are the radii of the two circles?
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Larger Circle DATA::
\n" ); document.write( "radius = x+6 ; circumference = 2pi(x+6)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Smaller Circle DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "radius = x ; circumference = 2pi*x
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(2pi(x+6)/2pi*x) = 4/1
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "8pi*x = 2pi(x+6)
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "4x = x+6
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 6
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2 (radius of smaller circle)
\n" ); document.write( "x+6 = 8 (radius of larger circle)
