A small silver dollar pancakes served at a restaurant has a circumference of two pi inches a regular pancake has a circumference of four pi inches is the area of the regular pancake twice the area of the silver dollar pancakes

Respuesta :

For this case we have that the perimeter by definition is:
 P = 2 * pi * r
 For small silver dollar pancakes:
 2 * pi * r = 2 * pi
 Thus:
 r = 1
 For a regular pancake 
 2 * pi * r = 4 * pi
 Thus:
 r = 2
 The area of both will be:
 For small silver dollar pancakes:
 A1 = pi * r1 ^ 2
 A1 = pi * (1) ^ 2
 A1 = pi
 For a regular pancake 
 A1 = pi * r2 ^ 2
 A1 = pi * (2) ^ 2
 A1 = 4pi
 Answer:
 the area of the regular pancake is not twice the area of the silver dollar pancakes
