A landscaper plants circular flowerbeds in square plots of v
A landscaper plants circular flowerbeds in square plots of various sizes. After planting flowers (shaded region shown), grass is put down to form a lawn in the remaining area of the square (white regions).
A. Define a function ff that determines the radius of the circular flowerbed in terms of the side length of the square plot, x.
B. Define a function g that determines the area of the circular flowerbed as a function of the radius of the circular flowerbed, r.
C. Define a function hh that determines the area of the circular flowerbed in terms of the side length of the square, x.
D. Define a function k that determines the area of the square plot in terms of the side length of the square plot, x.
E. Define a function l that determines the area of grass in terms of the side length of the square plot, x.
Solution
A. Since the diameter is equal to the side of the square,
x=2r
F=r=x/2
B. Function g = Area= * r * r
C. function h = * (x/2)2 = x2/4
D. Function k = x2
E. Function l = x2-r2 = x2- ( x2/4)
