A leaky pool loses 2 and one-fourth inches of water each day. Jermaine and Mildred are asked to determine the change in the amount of water in the pool over 5 days. Jermaine’s Solution
Mildred’s Solution
5 (Negative 2 and one-fourth) = 5 (negative 2 minus one-fourth) = negative 10 minus one-fourth = negative 10 and one-fourth
5 (Negative 2 and one-fourth) = 5 (negative 2 minus one-fourth) = negative 10 minus StartFraction 5 over 4 EndFraction = negative 11 and one-fourth

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.
