    Ok so area of circle=pir^2

    if one is 2 times another

    the radiouses are

    r and 2r

    they add up to 80pi so

    pir^2+pi (2r) ^2=80pi

    undistribute pi

    pi (r^2 + (2r) ^2) = 80pi

    divide both sides by pi

    r^2 + (2r) ^2=80

    do the exponent

    (2r) ^2=4r^2 so we have

    r^2+4r^2=80

    add like terms

    5r^2=80

    divide both sides by 5

    r^2=16

    square root both sides

    r=4

    2r=8

    radii are 4m and 8m
