radius = 3 feet

rearrange the formula making r the subject

$\frac{4}{3}$ πr³ = V ( multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate fraction )

4πr³ = 3V ( divide both sides by 4π )

r³ = $\frac{3V}{4\pi }$ = ( 3 × 36π ) / 4π = 3 × 9 = 27

take the cube root of both sides

r = $\sqrt[3]{27}$ = 3

2(x - 2) = -4x + 44 what does x equal

Komok [63]

2(x - 2) = -4x + 44

First, expand. / Your problem should look like: $2x - 4 = -4x + 44$
Second, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $2x = -4x + 44 + 4$
Third, simplify -4x + 44 + 4 to get -4x + 48. / Your problem should look like: $2x = -4x + 48$
Fourth, add 4x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $2x + 4x = 48$
Fifth, add 2x + 4x to get 6x. / Your problem should look like: $6x = 48$
Sixth, divide both sides by 6. / Your problem should look like: $x = \frac{48}{6}$
Seventh, simplify $\frac{48}{6}$ to 8. / Your problem should look like: $x = 8$

Answer: x = 8
