Struggling with Fractional Indices

A sphere of radius Rcm has area Acm^2 and Volume Vcm^3.

Show that A=kv^(2/3) where k = (this is a cube root) 3√(36pi)

I substituted but I don't really know where to go from there.

Can you rewrite the volume equation as
R = f(V),
For the function f(), then substitute for R in the area equation?

I solved it, would you like the solution?

This thread is over a year old. Also, we discourage people from posting full solutions on here; it doesn't really help people learn. The more of it they're able to do themselves, the better.

Could you post the solution please?

as per the previous post, we don't post full solutions - it's against forum rules!

If you're stuck, post what you've done so far and someone can help you out :smile:
