Question

a large balloon in the shape of a sphere is being filled with helium. The balloon has a radius of 1 foot. Helium costs $0.80 per cubic foot. What is the cost of filling the balloon with helium?

Answer 1

$3.35

Explanation:

volume of balloon in the shape of sphere= 4/3 * pi * r^3 = 4.189 cubic foot

cost of 1 cubic foot of helium = 0.8

cost of 1 * 4.189 cubic foot of helium = 0.8 * 4.189 = 3.35
