Answer:

14137.17 cubic cm

Explanation:

I can see that the radius here is 15cm, and when it says air, I am going to guess we are looking for the volume. We do the equation in order to get the volume, and get the answer 14137.17cm.

IMPORTANT : When it says air- you have to realize it's VOLUME.

given:

radius= 15 cm

to find:

the amount of cubic centimeters of air needed to fill the soccer ball.

solution:


v = (4)/(3) \pi {r}^(3)


v = (3)/(4) * \pi * {(15)}^(2)


v = 14137.17 {cm}^(3)

therefore, the soccer ball can hold 14137.17 cubic centimeters of air.
