You need to find the volume of the plastic sphere that holds the gum in your gumball machine. If the diameter is 2 feet, what is the volume? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

The volume is

4ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere is given by

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{ 3} [/tex]

where r is the radius

π = 3.14

From the question we were given the diameter and

radius = diameter/ 2

diameter = 2 feet

radius = 2/2 = 1 feet

So the volume of the sphere is

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(1) ^{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14[/tex]

V = 4.186

We have the final answer as

V = 4 ft³ to the nearest hundredth

Hope this helps you
