Question 566148: I am having difficulty comprehending how this is done. Please Help!
Use the formula v= 4/3 pi r^3
1. If the radius of a ball is twice that of another, how many times as big is its volume?
2. If the volume is twice that if a blue ball, how many times as big is its radius?

Thank you

Use the formula v= 4/3 pi r^3
1. If the radius of a ball is twice that of another, how many times as big is its volume?
8 times.

The volume is related to r^3. (n*r)^3 = n^3*r^3
Volume is a function of the cube of the radius.

2. If the volume is twice that if a blue ball, how many times as big is its radius?
Volume is a function of the cube of the radius.
I don't know about the color, but the radius is times.
