The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula
.. A = 4π*r^2
.. A = 4π*(1.25 in)^2 ≈ 20 in^2

It takes approximately 20 square inches of felt to cover a tennis ball.

Explanation

A tennis ball is in shape of a Sphere. As the outside of the ball is covered with felt, so we need to find the surface area of the ball.

Formula for surface area of sphere: A= 4\pi r^2

where, r is the radius of the sphere.

Here the radius is given as 1.25 inch, so r=1.25

Thus,

A= 4\pi (1.25)^2\\ \\ A= 4(3.14)(1.5625)\\ \\ A= 19.625\\ \\ A= 20 (Approximately)

So, it takes approximately 20 square inches of felt to cover a tennis ball.

100 people to the survey. And the question is practically asking how many people are left. So we have to subtract 60 from 100. And then subtract 10.

1.) 100 - 60 = 40

2.) 40 - 10 = 30
