Answer:

$V=36 \pi$ cubic inches

Explanation:

Diameter is increasing at 3 inches more than time, When t = 3

Diameter (d) = 3+3 = 6

d = 6

Radius is HALF of diameter, so

r = 6/2 = 3

Now, the volume of a sphere is given by the formula:

$V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3$

Putting r = 3, we get:

$V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3\\V=(4)/(3)\pi (3)^3\\V=36 \pi$

The volume would be 36π
