The formula for the radius of a sphere is:
r(s) = sqrt[s/(4pi)]
This is based on the formula that s = 4pi*r^2
As can be seen, as the surface area increases, s/4pi increases, and sqrt(s/4pi) will also increase, meaning that the radius will increase. This continues until the balloon reaches the maximum s = 1500 cm^2.
The correct answer is the first choice:
<span>As the surface area of the balloon increases, the radius of the balloon increases until the maximum surface area is reached.</span>
5 cm tall and still with a radius of 6 cm... do they want volume?
Answer: Scale factor is 2
Divide the x coordinates: 8/4 = 2
and do the same to the y coordinates: 6/3 = 2
we get 2 each time
0.0119047619 is the answer
