A basketball is the shape of a sphere.

The volume of a sphere is given by

V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

Given that the diameter of the basketball is 10 in., thus the radius is 10 / 2 = 5 in.

Thus, the volume of the basketball is given by

V= \frac{4}{3} \pi(5)^3 \\  \\ = \frac{4\times125}{3} \pi=523.6\ in^3

Therefore, The best approximate of the volume of the basketball is 5\times10^2\ in^3

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 0, y = -2.

When x = 2, y = 0.

So the function of the graph is y = x - 2, which is option D.

I’m confused :( I will mark as Brainliest and give you points

Answer:

123.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: To find the area of a rectangle, you have to multiply base times height.

To find the area of a triangle, you have to do base times height devided by 2.

Finding the area: Let's break up this shape into polygons. At the bottom there is a rectangle. We know that to find the area of the rectangle you have to do base times height. 13in•7in will give you <u>91in</u> square for the rectangle.

Now for the triangle. If you can see, if you break the triangle in half, there are 2 right triangles. Let's look at the right one for now. Since we know that to find the area of a triangle you have to do base times height divided by 2,  you do 5in•6.5in=32.5in. 32.5in divided by 2 is <u>16.25in </u>square which is the area of one triangle. You might be wondering why i did 5•6.5, and that's because at the bottom of the rectangle you can see it's 13in, and 13in÷2=6.5in.

We already found the area of the rectangle and one triangle. The other triangle is equal to it so we can just do 16.25+16.25=<u>32.5in</u> square for both of the triangles.

Now we add it all up: 32.5+91=123.5 square inches

The smartest person can only help with the method please help <br> 3 1/4 divided by 2
nevsk [136]

Answer:

13/8 = 1 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

first make 3 1/4 into an improper fraction

3 1/4 = (3*4+1)/4 = 13/4

13/4 /2

we know that dividing by a number is multiplying by its reciprocal, so

(13/4)/2 = 13/4 * (1/2)

multiply the numerators together, and multiply the denominators together

13/4 * (1/2) = (13*1)/(4*2) = 13/8 = 1 5/8
