Question

The volume of a sphere can be given by the formula V = 4.18879r. You have to design a spherical container that will hold
a volume of 55 cubic inches. What should the radius (r) of your container be? Round your final answer the nearest
hundreths place.

Answer 1

Answer:

2.36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 4.18879r³

to determine the value of r, make r the subject of the formula in the above equation

∛(V/4.18879) = R

∛(55/4.18879) = r

r = ∛13.130283

r = 2.36 inches

the hundredth is the second number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest hundredth, look at the number after the hundredth (the thousandth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the hundredth figure. If this is not the case, add zero
