The radius of a circle is increasing at a constant rate of $7 cm/min$. When the area of the circle is 16$pi$ $cm^2$, what is the rate of change of the area? Round your answer to three decimal places.
This is what I have so far:
$A=pi r^2$ $to$ dA/dr= 2$pi$r.
So, 16$pi$ $cm^2$ = $pi r^2$ -> r=4
$dr/dt$= 7 cm/min [Given]- Find $dA/dt$.
I know $dA/dt = (dA/dr)cdot(dr/dt)$.
So, I have $dA/dt$ = (2$pi$r)$cdot (7 cm/min $), that is $ dA/dt = 175.929$
I will appreciate any assistance with this. Thanks in advance!

When the area of the circle is $16pi, cm^2$ then the radius is $r$ is equal to $4, cm$.
Hence, according to your work,
$$frac{dA}{dt}=2pi rcdot frac{dr}{dt}=?; cm^2/min$$
What is the correct result?
Would it be 2π(4) ⋅ 7 = 56π = 175.929? Thank you very much for your help @Robert Z !!

@Lola Yes, and don't forget the units $cm^2/min$.

We have $r(t)=7t$, hence $A(t)= 49 pi t^2$, thus $A'(t)=98 pi t$.
Let $t_0$ so that $A(t_0)=16 pi$. This gives $t_0=4/7$. Hence $A'(t_0)=A'(4/7)=56$.
