Answer: The volume of the basketball is 449.09 in³.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the diameter of a basketball is 9.50 inches.

We are to find the volume of the basketball.

A basketball is of the shape of a sphere. And the volume of a SPHERE with radius 'r' units is given by

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3.$

Here, the diameter of the basketball is 9.50 inches, so the radius of the ball is

$r=\dfrac{9.50}{2}=4.75~\textup{inches}.$

Therefore, the volume of the basketball will be

$V\\\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}\times\dfrac{22}{7}\times (4.75)^3\\\\\\=\dfrac{88}{21}\times 107.17\\\\\\=\dfrac{9430.96}{21}\\\\=449.09~\textup{in}^3.$

Thus, the volume of the basketball is 449.09 in³.

Jay places $3200 in an investment account earning 4.1% interest compounded weekly. How much money would he have in the account a

jasenka [17]

Answer:

A = $3,926.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Principal (P) = $3200, Annual Rate (R) = 4.1%, Time = 5 years

To find: How much money would he have in the account after 5 years, if he made no deposits or withdrawals during that time?

Formula: $A = P(1 + r/n)^nt$

Solution: Compound interest is one of the most important concepts to understand when managing your finances. It can help you earn a higher return on your savings and investments, but it can also work against you when you're paying interest on a loan

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 4.1/100

r = 0.041 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n) $^{nt}$
