Question 754477: A circular pool is surrounded by a circular walkway. The radius of the pool is x-6 and the radius of the walkway is x+6. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the walkway. Answer by lwsshak3(11628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A circular pool is surrounded by a circular walkway. The radius of the pool is x-6 and the radius of the walkway is x+6. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the walkway.
***
Area of walkway=area of pool and walkway-area of pool
Area of a circle=π radius^2
Area of walkway
=π(x+6)^2-π(x-6)^2
=π[(x+6)^2-(x-6)^2]
=π[x^2+12x+36-x^2+12x-36]
=24πx
area of the walkway=24πx
