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.

I’m so bad at this ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Answer:

a)6

b)v^2-u^2/2a

Step-by-step explanation:

a)Given that,

u=12

a= -6

s=9

We know that,

v^2=u^2+2as

or, v^2=(12)^2+2×(-6)×9

or,v^2=144-108

or,v^2=36

or, v=√36

∴v=6

(Ans)

b)If ,v^2=u^2+2as

then, u^2+2as=v^2

or,2as=v^2-u^2

or, s=v^2-u^2/2a

∴s=v^2-u^2/2a

Hope ya find it helpful.. Thanks a lot...

Help on math please!!!

juin [17]

Table:

y = x²

can also be written as: f(x) = x²

Plug in each x value and calculate the output:

f(-4) = (-4)² = 16

f(-3) = (-3)² = 9

f(-2) = 4

f(-1) = 1

f(- $\frac{1}{2}$ ) = $\frac{1}{4}$

f(0) = 0

f( $\frac{1}{2}$ ) = $\frac{1}{4}$

f(1) = 1

f(2) = 4

f(3) = 9

f(4) = 16
