5 0

Answer:

56503

Step-by-step explanation:

this grows exponentialy so at the start it would be 50,000 growing by 5% every ten years. but since there is only 2 ten years in 25 years we must cut the percent in half making 2.5%

Step 1

(50,000×5%)+50,000= 52500

Step 2

(52500×5%)+52500= 55125

step 3

(55125×2.5%) +55125= 56503

This 7-mile distance would be our radius in this scenario. We now need to use the formula for the Area of a circle to calculate the search area. This formula is the following

A = $\pi r^{2}$
