Mean = 12000
Standard Deviation = 2000

We have to find how many standard deviations is 14,500 away from the mean.
This can be achieved by calculating the z-score

Z-score tells us how many standard deviations above or below is a sample value from the mean. A positive z value shows, sample value is above the mean.

z score can be calculated as = (Sample Value - Mean )/Standard Deviation)
So,
Z-score = \frac{14500-12000}{2000} =1.25

This means, 14,500 is 1.25 standard deviations above the mean value 12,000.

Answer:

33.4933 ≈ 33.5 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ Radius (r) = 2 mm

Formula we use,

→ 4/3 πr³

Let's solve for the volume of sphere,

→ 4/3 πr³

→ 4/3 × 3.14 × 2 × 2 × 2

→ 4/3 × 3.14 × 8

→ 4/3 × 25.12

→ 100.48/3

→ 33.4933

→ [ ≈ 33.5 mm³ ]

Hence, volume of sphere is 33.5 mm³.

we can name it as ∠EFG, ∠F , ∠GFE

This strikes out the option B that is ∠G

so option B is the answer
