Answer:

2/8 more per day

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 (new daily amount) - 1/8 (old daily amount) = 2/8 (or 1/4) which is the amount due to the new cat

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Alex
Check the picture below on the left-side.

we know the central angle of the "empty" area is 120°, however the legs coming from the center of the circle, namely the radius, are always 6, therefore the legs stemming from the 120° angle, are both 6, making that triangle an isosceles.

now, using the "inscribed angle" theorem, check the picture on the right-side, we know that the inscribed angle there, in red, is 30°, that means the intercepted arc is twice as much, thus 60°, and since arcs get their angle measurement from the central angle they're in, the central angle making up that arc is also 60°, as in the picture.

so, the shaded area is really just the area of that circle's "sector" with 60°, PLUS the area of the circle's "segment" with 120°.

\bf \textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\
A_x=\cfrac{\theta \pi r^2}{360}\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad degrees\\
------\\
r=6\\
\theta =60
\end{cases}\implies A_x=\cfrac{60\cdot \pi \cdot 6^2}{360}\implies \boxed{A_x=6\pi} \\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \textit{area of a segment of a circle}\\\\
A_y=\cfrac{r^2}{2}\left[\cfrac{\pi \theta }{180}~-~sin(\theta )  \right]
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad degrees\\
------\\
r=6\\
\theta =120
\end{cases}

\bf A_y=\cfrac{6^2}{2}\left[\cfrac{\pi\cdot 120 }{180}~-~sin(120^o )  \right]
\\\\\\
A_y=18\left[\cfrac{2\pi }{3}~-~\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right]\implies \boxed{A_y=12\pi -9\sqrt{3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{shaded area}\qquad \stackrel{A_x}{6\pi }~~+~~\stackrel{A_y}{12\pi -9\sqrt{3}}\implies 18\pi -9\sqrt{3}
