Lerola and her younger sister Kiara are jogging around a circular track. Lerola jogs far enough from the center of the circle that her laps are half a mile long. Kiara runs around a circle whose circumference is as long as Lerola's. How far from the center of the circle is Kiara running, in feet? ​Use 3.14 for pi. 3 2There are 5280 feet in a mile.

Respuesta :

Circumference of circular track, C = 0.5 miles = 0.5×5280 feet = 2640 feet.

We know, circumference in circle is given by :

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

( Here, r is radius i.e distance of centre from track )

Putting values in above equation :

2 × 3.14 × r = 2640

6.28 × r = 2640

r = 420.38 feet

Therefore, distance between centre and track is 420.38 feet .

Hence, this is the required solution.
