Sid calculated the scale factor to be 5. What error, if any, did Sid make when he calculated the scale factor?
Sid found the reciprocal of the scale factor.
Sid used the wrong dimensions to calculate the scale factor. He should have gotten 2 as the scale factor.
Sid used the wrong dimensions to calculate the scale factor. He should have gotten 5 as the scale factor.
Sid did not make an error calculating the scale factor. The correct scale factor is 5

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
