I chose C^^
OpenStudy (mrnood):
are you confident with that? how did you calculate it?
OpenStudy (xxlyh):
I calculated it again and I'm kinda thinking it's A sorry TT
OpenStudy (xxlyh):
d=3.5
r=d/2
r=3.5/2
OpenStudy (mrnood):
just take time and care
it is a simple equation :
V = 4 pi r^3 /3

btw - I only asked if you were confident (in case you just guessed)
OpenStudy (mrnood):
so - you are correct r= 1.75 (i.e. 3.5/2)
check that in 4 * 3.14 * r^3/3
OpenStudy (xxlyh):
I got 21..34 ^
OpenStudy (mrnood):
I suggest you try again
OpenStudy (mrnood):
4 * 3.14 * r^3/3
r = 1.75

21.98 is what I'm getting
OpenStudy (mrnood):
21.98 is not one of th eanswer options - so it is wrong
if you are using a calculator try doing th e 'cubed 'f irst:
r^3 * 4 * 3.14 /3
r = 1.75
