A girl stands on a carousel and rotated around the ride 6 times if the distance between the girl and the center of the carousel is 8 how many feet did the little girl travel

Respuesta :

Answer:

301.74 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A girl stands on a carousel and rotated around the ride 6 times.

The distance between the girl and the center of the carousel is 8.

It means radius, r = 8 feet

Question asked:

How many feet did the little girl travel ?

Solution:

As here asked that how many feet the little girl traveled during rotation around the ride 6 times, we will find circumference of the circle.

[tex]Circumference\ of \ circle =2\pi r[/tex]

                                        [tex]=2\times\frac{22}{7} \times8\\ =\frac{352}{7} \\ =50.29\ feet[/tex]

Now, we will multiply this by 6 as she  rotated around the ride 6 times.

[tex]6\times50.29=301.74\ feet[/tex]

Thus, the little girl traveled 301.74 feet during this ride.
