Question

You are creating winter decorations to hang in your windows. You want to fill each glass ball with decorative snow and mini trees. The diameter of each ball is 4 in. About how much space do you have available to fill in each ball?Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

To answer this question we will use the following formula to compute the volume of a sphere:

`Volume=(\pi* diameter^3)/(6).`

Substituting diameter=4in in the above formula we get:

`Volume=(\pi*(4in)^3)/(6).`

Simplifying the above result we get:

`Volume=(\pi*64in^3)/(6)=(32\pi)/(3)in^3.`

Using 3.14 for pi we get:

`Volume\approx33.49in^3.`

Answer: Option C.
