A sphere has a radius of 2x + 5. Which polynomial in standard form best describes the total surface area of the sphere?
\[S=4 \pi r^2\]
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
plug in 2x+5 for r
OpenStudy (snowcrystal):
\[A.) 16 \pi x^2 + 80 \pi x + 100 \pi\]
\[B.) 16 \pi x^2 + 40 \pi x + 100 \pi\]
\[C.) 100 \pi x^2 + 80 \pi x + 16 \pi\]
\[D.) 100 \pi x^2 + 100 \pi\]

\[4 \times π \times (2x+5)^2\]\[4 \times π \times (2x+5)(2x+5)\]\[4 \times π \times (4x^2+20x+25)\]\[π \times 4 \times (4x^2+20x+25)\]\[π \times (16x^2+80x+100)\]\[16x^2π+80xπ+100π\]

Clear?
OpenStudy (snowcrystal):
I think so.... I am not sure the whole numbers and letters confuse me
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
I don't really see what you're confused about
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
I plugged in 2x+5 for the radius into the sphere formula you have posted.
