Answer:

<h2>Tabitha's defintion is valid.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Her definition is valid because the sphere is basically defined by its radius, which is the equidistant points towards a center. If points are not equidistant, then that's not a sphere.

Also, Tabitha is considering "a set of points" referring to infinite points on the surface of the sphere. The single point she mentioned is the center.

Therefore, Tabitha's definition is valid because she's considering all elements that define a sphere.

Answer:

The number of cats an frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

For some reason the equation has (c+f) grouped off from the rest, since in an equation the first step is to take care of things in the parentheses, first you must add the two together, and based on the description, you know that c is the number of cats and f is the number of frogs. Therefore adding them together would get the total number of cats and frogs.
