A sphere has a volume of V=900 in cubed. What is the surface area?

1 answer:

4 0

First, we must solve for the radius of the sphere:
V= $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi$ $r^{3}$
r=(3 $\frac{V}{4 \pi }$ ) $^{ \frac{1}{3} }$
r=(3* $\frac{900}{4 \pi }$ ) $^{ \frac{1}{3} }$
r≈5.99

Second, we must solve for surface area:
A=4 $\pi$ $r^{2}$
A=4* $\pi$ * $5.99^{2}$
A≈450.88 $in^{2}$

By definition, we have

$|p+2| = \begin{cases} p+2 &\text{ if } p+2 \geq 0 \\-p-2 &\text{ if } p+2 < 0 \end{cases}$

So, we have to solve two different equations, depending of the possible range for the variable. We have to remember about these ranges when we decide to accept or discard the solutions:

Suppose that $p+2\geq 0 \iff p \geq -2$
