Respuesta :

The best apporximation for the volume of this ball is 382 cubic inches.

What is the volume of the ball?

The volume of the ball is calculated by the formula V = 4 / 3πr³. This formula is the same in the whole world.

Given

A regulation basketball has a diameter of about 9 in.

The radius of the ball is;

[tex]\rm Radius = \dfrac{Diameter}{2}\\\\Radius=\dfrac{9}{2}\\\\Radius=4.5\ inches[/tex]

The volume of the ball is;

[tex]\rm Volume =\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\Volume=\dfrac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 4.5^3\\\\Volume =\dfrac{144.53}{3}\\\\Volume = 381.51\\\\Volume = 382 \ In^3 \ apporx[/tex]

Hence, the best apporximation for the volume of this ball is 382 cubic inches.
