Question: Angioplasty is a technique in which arteries partially blocked with plaque are dilated to increase blood flow.

Part A: By what factor must the radius of an artery be increased in order to increase blood flow by a factor of 8.0?

I have been stuck on this question for a long time, please help. Show steps. Thanks!
