    Area = 45π inches²

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Area of the circle = πr²

    The radius of the circle measured in inches is modeled by the function.

    r (s) = 3√s

    where

    s = time

    Since

    Area = πr²

    A (s) = π (3√s) ²

    A (s) = 9πs

    when

    s = 5 seconds

    Using the function

    A (s) = 9πs

    A (s) = 9 * π * 5

    Area = 45π inches²

    The area of the circle when s = 5 is 45π in²

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    r (s) = 3√s

    Required

    Area of he circle when s = 5

    Provided that the oil spillage from the tanker forms a circle on the surface of the ocean, the area of the spill is calculated by the area of the circle.

    Area = πr²

    First, the value of r must be calculated

    r = 3√s

    When s = 5

    r = 3√5 in

    Substitute 3√5 for r in the equation of a circle.

    A = πr² becomes

    A = π (3√5) ²

    Open the bracket.

    A = π * 3√5 * 3√5

    A = π * 9 * 5

    A = 45π

    Hence, the area of the circle when s = 5 is 45π in²
