Question The approximate circumference of a circle is 7,459 miles. What is the radius rounded to the nearest hundredths place? Use 3.14 for PI and express your answer to the tenths place. Use the formula sheet provided.(1 point) Responses 2,375.5 miles 2,375.5 miles 1,187.7 miles 1,187.7 miles 3,729.5 miles 3,729.5 miles 1,243.2 miles
The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where C is the circumference and r is the radius.
Given that the circumference is 7,459 miles and using the approximation for π as 3.14:
7,459 = 2(3.14)r
7,459 = 6.28r
r = 7,459 / 6.28
r ≈ 1,187.7 miles
Therefore, the radius rounded to the nearest hundredths place is 1,187.7 miles.
The correct response is: 1,187.7 miles
