Exercise 5 Page 441

The volume of a sphere is four thirds the product of π and the cube of the radius.

17 157.3cm^3

Practice makes perfect

Consider the given sphere.

The volume of a sphere is four thirds the product of π and the cube of the radius. V=4/3π r^3 In the diagram we can see that the diameter is 32 centimeters. Therefore, the radius is 32÷ 2=16 centimeters. We can substitute this value for r in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side

V=4/3π r^3

Substitute

r= 16

V=4/3π ( 16)^3
