Question

The volume of a sphere is 3,000pi m^3. What is the surface area of the sphere to the nearest square meter?

Answer 1

volume = 4/3 pi r^3
find r and use that to calculate surface area

Answer 2

V = (4/3) * pi * r^3
3000pi = (4/3) * pi r^3
r^3 = 2250
r = 2250^(1/3)

SA = 4*pi*r^2
SA = 4*pi*(2250^(1/3))^2
SA = 4*pi*2250^(2/3)

Simplify as needed.
