The spoke of a wheel reaches from the center of the wheel to its rim if the circumference of the rim

The formula for circumference is: c=2πr.  since we know the circumference we can solve for r.
r=48/2π
r=24/π
r=7.64 inches
Since each spoke for the wheel is basically the radius, each spoke has a length of 7.64 inches.

7.5 inches, about :] 

B. 7.64 inches

Step-by-step explanation: Correct for Penn foster exam.

7.64 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the picture below
[tex]The spoke of a wheel reaches from the center of the wheel to its rim. if the circumference of the ri[/tex]

Given:
Circumference of the rim of the wheel 48 inches.
pi = 3.14

find the length of the spoke, radius.

C = 2πr
48 = 2 (3.14) r
48 = 6.28 r
48/6.28 = r
7.64 = r

The length of the spoke is 7.64 inches.

The circumference of a circle is πdYou know the circumference of the rim of the wheel is 48 inches so to find the diameter (d) you divide 48/3.14 which gives you 15.29 inches. As the spoke goes from the center to its rim, it it is the radius, which is half of the diameter.15.29/2 is B) 7.64 inches.

The circumference of a circle is πd
You know the circumference of the rim of the wheel is 48 inches so to find the diameter (d) you divide 48/3.14 which gives you 15.29 inches.
As the spoke goes from the center to its rim, it it is the radius, which is half of the diameter.
15.29/2 is B) 7.64 inches.

The spoke of a wheel reaches from the center of the wheel to its rim implies that the spoke of the wheel is describes the radius to the wheel. The circumference of a circle is given by C = 2πr. i.e. 48 = 2 x 3.14r = 6.28r => r = 48 / 6.28 = 7.64 inches.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!
