A certain fungus grows in a circular shape. Its diameter in inches after t weeks is given below. 6- 50/t^2+10 What is the area covered by the fungus when t = 0? What area does it cover at the end of 5 weeks?
The area covered is 0 square inches at t = 0 and 5.2π square inches at t = 5. The area covered is square inches at t = 0 and 4.2π square inches at t = 5. The area covered is square inches at t = 0 and 5.2π square inches at t = 5. The area covered is square inches at t = 0 and 10.4π square inches at t = 5. The area covered is square inches at t = 0 and 5.2π square inches at t = 5.
are the answers
the blanks are: pi/4, pi/4, pi/6, and pi/2 (in the answers above) ...sorry copied and pasted
Area = pi (d/2)^2
depending on how yout equation is actually spose to look: id say its something like this: Area = pi*[(6- 50/t^2+10)/2]^2
i am confused
all i did was take the function they gave you for the diameter and plugged it straight into the Area function of a circle
i got know idea what you equation is spose to look like, but thats on your end. plug in the t values and itll just sipt out an answer
i know i know but the answers they are giving me are confusing me
what do you get for d when t = 0?
1
yeah, 1 is good; now use that in the circles area formula A = (d/2)^2 pi A = 1/4 pi
3.14/4 = .78 something or another right?
or .25 pi
yes
what you get for t=5 in the diamter equation?
4.6 or something like that
i rounded
k, and 4.6/2 = 2.3 (2.3)^2 = 5.29 or so, so at t=5 the area = 5.29 pi or so
its either the middle or the last, since yout t=0 stuff got eaten
yeah that is right.
how did u get 1/4 for the first thing again?
nevermind
did you figure it out?
