irina [24]

Tammy has planted a small, young tree in her yard. To allow for the tree’s growth, she needs 15 feet in all directions around th
astraxan [27]

Answer:

First, remember that a circle of radius R centered in the point (a, b) can be written as:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2  = R^2

Suppose that we can model the yard as a rectangular coordinate axis.

And the tree is planted in the point (a, b)

If we want to have 15 feet in all directions around the base of the tree (15 ft around the point (a, b))

The section that must remain unplanted is:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2   ≤ R^2

Where the ≤ symbol is used because all the interior of the circle must remain unplanted (border included)
