Question 5 options:

1595.45 ft3


12,763.6 ft3


389.86 ft3


90.06 ft3

Answer 1

Answer: 1595

Explanation:

The volume formula uses the radius of the sphere not the diameter.

Answer 2

1595.45 ft3

Explanation:

The formula is (4/3) *3.14*r^3

since the diameter is 14.5, the radius is 7.25

(4/3) *3.14*(7.25^3)
