Steve walks a circular trail at the local park that is 440 yards in length (a quarter-mile). The city council has built a fountain at the center of the circle. To the nearest yard, what is the shortest distance from the path to the center of the fountain? SHOW UR WORKKKKKK

Respuesta :

70 yards

the answer is the radius of the circle
440 is the circles circumference and circumference is C = 2pi r
440 = 2pi r
devise both sides by 2
220 = pi r
divide both sides by pi
220/pi or 70 = r
