Algebra.Com's Answer #502454 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the diameter of a sphere is increased by 31% by what percentage of the original volume does the sphere increase to? \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "You can only spec the increased volume in terms of the original volume. \n" ); document.write( "d --> d*1.31 (also r) \n" ); document.write( "The formula for volume has an r^3 term --> it's a function of the cube of the radius. \n" ); document.write( "Vol --> vol*1.31^3 \n" ); document.write( "= vol*2.248091 \n" ); document.write( "An increase of ~125% \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
