Question

A spherical fish bowl is half-filled with water. The center of the bowl is C, and the length of segment AB is 24 inches, as shown below. Use 22/4 for pi.



What is volume, in cubic inches, of water inside the fish bowl?

2430.86

3620.57

150.8

603.3

keep in mind that "r" is for radius, and as the picture shows, is only half of the diameter, or half of AB

now, the formula uses \(\large \pi\) which is 3.1416, but you're asked to use 22/4 instead, so use that :)

Answer 2

so 4/3*22/4*1728

Answer 3

yep

Answer 4

so that will give me 16/66*12

Answer 5

is that right??

Answer 6

hey are u there??

Answer 7

well, I have

$$
\cfrac{4}{3}\times \cfrac{22}{4} \times 12^3 \implies
\cfrac{22}{3} \times 1728 \implies \color{green}{12672}
$$

Answer 8

half that is not any of the options you have there :/

Answer 9

come on dude so which one would it be??

Answer 10

however if I use 3.1416 for \(\large \pi \) then I get 3619.11, which is close to the 1st one

Answer 11

so the second then

Answer 12

ummm
22/4 = 7.25

i think you meant 22/7

Answer 13

ohh right, the 2nd I meant, right, but that'd be using 3.1416 for \(\large \pi \), not the suggested 22/4

Answer 14

ok thanks

Answer 15

yw

Answer 16

sorry dumbcow i cant put second best answer

Answer 17

haha that ok ...just always be aware of typos, pi should be close to 3.14 always
