Exercise 9 Page 443

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

4000/3π cubic units

Practice makes perfect

The volume of a sphere is four thirds the product of π and the cube of the radius. V=4/3π r^3 We want to find the volume of a sphere whose radius is 10 units. Therefore, we can substitute 10 for r in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side.

V=4/3π r^3

r= 10

V=4/3π ( 10)^3

Calculate power

V=4/3π (1000)

V=4 * 1000/3π

Multiply

V=4000/3π

The volume of the sphere is 40003π cubic units.
