<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Radius of the ball is approximately 6.5 cm to the nearest tenth
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The ball has the shape of a sphere
<u>Surface area of a sphere can be calculated using the following rule:</u>
Surface area of sphere = 4πr² square units
<u>In the given problem, we have:</u>
Surface area of the ball = 531 cm²
<u>Substitute with the area in the above equation and solve for the radius as follows:</u>
which is approximately 6.5 cm to the nearest tenth
Hope this helps :)
