Hey there!!

If we read the question, we get to know, the volume of the tank = 11,000 ft³ and the shape is spherical.

The volume of a sphere = ( 4/3 ) ( πr³ )

We know the volume and now we just get this into an equation.

11000 = ( 4/3 ) ( πr³ )

Divide by 4/3 on both sides

... ( 11000 ) / ( 4/3 ) = πr³

... 11000 × 3/4 = πr³

... 8250 = πr³

Remember - π = 22/7

... 8250 = πr³

Divide by π on both sides

... 8250 / 22/7 = r³

... 8250 × 7 / 22 = r³

... 2625 = r³

Cube root on both sides

... ∛2625 = r

... r = 13.7 ft

Diameter = 2 × radius

Diameter = 2 × 13.7

... 27.4 ft = Diameter

Hope my answer helps!!

V = Volume of the spherical tank = 11000 ft³

d = diameter of the sphere = ?

Volume of water in the tank is same as the volume of sphere

The formula for Volume of spherical tank is given as

V = (π/6) d³

d³ = 6V/π

d = ∛(6V/π)

inserting the values given above

d = ∛(6(11000)/3.14)

d = ∛(66000/3.14)

d = ∛(21019.11)

d = 27.6 ft

Answer: The answer would be 40 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

first you would divide 2 by 10 which would equal 5 then multiple the 8 liters by 5 which gives you 40

After being treated with chemotherapy, the radius of the tumor decreased by 23%. What is the corresponding percentage decrease i

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The volume of the tumor experimented a decrease of 54.34 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that tumor has an spherical geometry, whose volume ( $V$ ) is calculated by:

$V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot R^{3}$

Where $R$ is the radius of the tumor.

The percentage decrease in the volume of the tumor ( $\%V$ ) is expressed by:

$\%V = \frac{\Delta V}{V_{o}} \times 100\,\%$

Where:

$\Delta V$ - Absolute decrease in the volume of the tumor.

$V_{o}$ - Initial volume of the tumor.

The absolute decrease in the volume of the tumor is:

$\Delta V = V_{o}-V_{f}$

$\Delta V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (R_{f}^{3}-R_{o}^{3})$

The percentage decrease is finally simplified:

$\%V = \left[1-\left(\frac{R_{f}}{R_{o}}\right)^{3} \right]\times 100\,\%$

Given that $R_{o} = R$ and $R_{f} = 0.77\cdot R$ , the percentage decrease in the volume of tumor is:

$\%V = \left[1-\left(\frac{0.77\cdot R}{R}\right)^{3} \right]\times 100\,\%$

$\%V = 54.34\,\%$

The volume of the tumor experimented a decrease of 54.34 percent.
