Question 850445: the problem Im having difficulty with is as follows:
A tumor in a persons body can be approximated by a spherical shape. Radiation treatments cause the tumor to shrink. As a result, the radius decreases at a rate of 1mm per mo.
a) if the tumor has a radius of 2.5mm, what is the surface area?
b) after two months of radiation, what is its surface area?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! A tumor in a persons body can be approximated by a spherical shape. Radiation treatments cause the tumor to shrink. As a result, the radius decreases at a rate of 1mm per mo.
a) if the tumor has a radius of 2.5mm, what is the surface area?
b) after two months of radiation, what is its surface area?
> 2 months, r = 0.5 mm
