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!

          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 $A'(t_0)=A'(4/7)=56$.

            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 $A'(t_0)=A'(4/7)=56$.
