USE THE FORMULA FOR THE VOLUME OF A SPHERE TO FIND THE VOLUME OF A BASKETBALL THAT HAS A DIAMETER OF 9.2 INCHES .
Apologies for the confusion. Let me recalculate the volume correctly.
The formula for the volume of a sphere is:
V = (4/3) * π * r^3
Given the diameter of the basketball is 9.2 inches, the radius is half the diameter:
radius = 9.2 inches / 2 = 4.6 inches
Now we can substitute this radius into the volume formula:
V = (4/3) * π * (4.6 inches)^3
V = (4/3) * π * (97.336 inches^3)
Calculating this expression:
V ≈ 4.18879 * 97.336
V ≈ 407.0759 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the basketball with a diameter of 9.2 inches is approximately 407.08 cubic inches.
Once again, apologies for any confusion caused earlier.
The formula for the volume of a sphere is given by:
V = (4/3) * π * r^3
Where V is the volume, π is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159, and r is the radius of the sphere.
Given the diameter of the basketball is 9.2 inches, we need to find the radius. The radius is half the diameter, so we divide 9.2 inches by 2:
radius = 9.2 inches / 2 = 4.6 inches
Now we can substitute this radius into the volume formula:
V = (4/3) * π * (4.6 inches)^3
V = (4/3) * π * (97.336 inches^3)
Calculating this expression:
V ≈ 4.18879 * 97.336
V ≈ 407.071 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the basketball is approximately 407.071 cubic inches.
