Transcript text: The radius, $R$, of a sphere is 7.5 cm . Calculate the sphere's volume, $V$.
Use the value 3.14 for $\pi$, and round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Do not round any intermediate computations.)
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Formula for the volume of a sphere
The volume of a sphere is given by the formula:
$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$
where $R$ is the radius of the sphere.
Step 2: Substitute the given values
We are given that $R = 7.5$ cm and $\pi = 3.14$. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
$V = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (7.5)^3$
