Answer:

V = (4/3)π·5³ = 500π/3

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of any sphere as a function of its radius is ...

V = (4/3)π·r³

When the sphere has a radius of 5, we replace r in the formula with 5. The formula for the volume of a sphere with radius 5 is ...

V = (4/3)π·5³

__

When that is evaluated, the volume is found to be ...

V = 500π/3 ≈ 523.599 . . . cubic units
