To complete the table and write a conclusion based on the data, first, we'll need to use the relationship between the circumference (C) and diameter (d) of a circle, which is given by the formula:
\[ C = \pi \times d \]
The ratio \( \frac{C}{d} \) is equal to \( \pi \), which is approximately 3.14.
Assuming you have the measurements for circumference and diameter, I will outline how to complete the table. If you provide me with specific values, I can assist you further. Below is a template for how you might complete the table depending on hypothetical measurements of the tire data:
| Tire | Circumference, C (inches) | Diameter, d (inches) | Ratio: C/d | |------|----------------------------|-----------------------|------------| | 1 | 78.5 | 25.0 | 3.1 | | 2 | 84.0 | 27.0 | 3.1 | | 3 | 91.0 | 29.0 | 3.1 | | 4 | 75.4 | 24.0 | 3.1 |
In this example:
- For Tire 1: C = 78.5 inches, d = 25.0 inches, so ratio \( C/d = 78.5 / 25.0 = 3.14 \) (rounded to 3.1).
Once you have filled in the table based on the actual measurements you collected, you can summarize your findings.
Conclusion Statement:
Based on the data collected and calculated ratios, we observe that for the tires measured, the circumference of a circle is approximately 3 times the diameter of the circle. Thus, to the nearest whole number, the circumference of a circle is 3 times the diameter of the circle.
