Answer:
C. 3.7 in
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the surface area of the basketball, which is calculated as follows:
Surface area of a sphere = 4πr²
Replacing with a surface area of 171.9 square inches and solving for radius, we get:
171.9 = 4πr²
[tex]r^2 = \frac{171.9}{4 \cdot 3.14}[/tex]
[tex] r = \sqrt{13.69}[/tex]
r = 3.7 in
