Question

A sphere has a diameter of 5 inches.

What is the volume of the sphere rounded to the nearest tenth?

Use 3.14 for pi.

16.4 in³
65.4 in³
130.8 in³
523.3 in³

Answer 1

65.4 in³

Explanation:

Answer 2

By definition, the volume of a sphere is given by:

`V = (4/3) * ( \pi ) * (r ^ 3)`
Where,
r: is the radius of the sphere
The radius of the sphere is:

`r = d / 2`
Where,
d: diameter of the sphere
Substituting values we have:

`r = 5/2 r = 2.5`
Then, the nolumen is given by:

`V = (4/3) * (3.14) * (2.5 ^ 3) V = 65.4 in ^ 3`
Answer:
the volume of the sphere is:
65.4 in³
