A toy company produces rubber balls that have a radius of 1.7 cm.

What is the volume of one rubber ball? Round to the

nearest hundredth of a centimeter.

20.58 cm3

If the price of the rubber needed to produce a ball is

$0.0045/cm3, what is the cost of producing one ball?

Round to the nearest cent.

If the company sells a ball for $0.50, how much profit

will it make on each ball?

$1.7 cm

20.58 cm^3, $0.09, $0.41

Hope this helps
