Let A(t)A(t) be the area of a circle with radius r(t)r(t), at time tt in min. Suppose the radius is changing at the rate of drdt=3drdt=3 ft/min. Find the rate of change of the area at the moment in time when r=6r=6 ft.

Answer :

Answer:

At a point when r = 6 ft

The rate of change of Area with time is given as

(dA/dt) = 36π = 113.1 ft²/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle, A = πr²

A = πr²

(dA/dt) = (dA/dr) × (dr/dt)

(dA/dr) = 2πr, (dr/dt) = 3

(dA/dt) = 2πr × 3 = 6πr

At a point when r = 6 ft

(dA/dt) = 6πr = 6π × 6 = 36π = 113.1 ft²/min
