A business plan is centered around a circular area of distribution. The plan calls for the radius of the distribution to increase 50 miles per year. The investors have asked that the plan include a reference to the area of distribution based on the number of years in business. These functions model this plan:
Radius in y years: r(y) = 50y
Total area: A(r) = πr2; r in miles
What is A(r(y)), the total area in y years?
A(r(y)) = 50Ï€y2
A(r(y)) = 2,500Ï€y2
A(r(y)) = 50Ï€r2
A(r(y)) = 2,500Ï€r2
