Algebra.Com's Answer #612167 by vleith(2983)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! circle A has a radius of 5 and a diameter of 10 \n" ); document.write( "Circle B has a diameter 3 times that of circle A. So B's diameter is 3*10 = 30. \n" ); document.write( "That makes B's radius 30/2 = 15.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What is the length from B to A? 15 + 5 = 20\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
