Question:
The table below gives the surface area, S, and the volume, V of five different spheres, rounded to 1 decimal place.
Given that S = aVb, where a and b are constants,
a. Show that log S = log a + b log V.
b. Copy and complete the table of values of log S and log V, giving your answers to 2 decimal places.
c. Plot a graph of log V against log S and draw in a line of best fit.
d. Use your graph to confirm that b = 1.5 and estimate the value of a to one significant figure.
