Answer

$1\leq x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}\leq 4$

Work Step by Step

The sphere with the greater radius: $\quad x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=2^{2}$ The inner sphere: $\quad x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=1^{2}$ Each equation is an application of the distance formula which states that: the square of the distance of a point on the sphere from its center point equals $($the radius$)^{2}$. We want the square of the distance to be between $1^{2}$ and $2^{2},$ inclusive$:$ $1\leq x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}\leq 4$
