a bicycle tire is 28 inches in diameter. approximately how far does the bicycle move forward each time the wheel goes around? (use 22/7 as an approximation for pi.)

Respuesta :

Answer: 88 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A bicycle tire is 28 inches in diameter. approximately.

To find the distance traveled by the bicycle each time the wheel goes around we need to find the circumference of the tire.

The circumference of a circle : [tex]\pi d[/tex], where d is the diameter of the circle.

Now, the circumference of tire : [tex]\dfrac{22}{7} \times(28)=88[/tex]

Hence, the distance traveled by the bicycle each time the wheel goes around  =88 inches.

The wheel moves forward each time, in a single round it will cover distance of 88 inches.

Given information:

The diameter of the tire is 28 inches.

Now, if we need to find the distance covered by the tire in one round, we need to understand that the tire will cover exactly same distance as it's circumference in one round.

So, the distance will be equal to its circumference :

[tex]D=\pi\times d[/tex]

Hence, distance covered (D)

[tex]D=3.14\times 28\\D=88[/tex]

Hence, when the wheel move forward each time the in a single round it will cover 88 inches.
