Answer 7

@Cjsmall14 how did you get that

Answer 8

Get the diametyer divide by pi and bring in the radius

Answer 9

Do you know the formula of volume of a sphere?
\[V= \frac{ 4 }{ 3 } \pi r ^{3}\]
where r is the radius. Divide 12 inches by 2. You get r=6.

Answer 10

@Jack1234 @emcrazy14 gave you a hint.

Answer 11

I did that but Im not sure if I'm right

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 15

I said it was D

Answer 16

904.90

Answer 17

You are almost there. But D is not the answer. Read the question again. It says *only half of the sphere is filled.* So you should divide the value you got by 2.

Answer 18

so 904.90 divided by 2

Answer 19

Yes. Right.

Answer 20

So B is my answer

Answer 21

Yes.
