A sphere has a radius of 9 in, which means its volume is 972π in3. The sphere is dilated by 2⁄3. What is the volume of the new sphere?

Answer:

08-Oct-2009 — If a spherical balloon has a volume of 972 pi cubic centimeters, what is ... is 4.pi.r^2 (its area remember not volume) as 4/3.pi.r^3=972pi r=9 ... and it is good to know the squares of the next 10 numbers.

Answer:

I have this same question on my math test.

Since the radius is 9, the diameter is 18.

The shape is being dilated by 2/3, so the new radius is 6.

Volume formula: V = 4/3πr^3

So now we plug in the values.

V = 4/3 x π x (6)^3

V = 4/3 x π x 216

V = 288π

If the answers do not have the pi symbol present, then it has been multiplied into the answer.

288 x 3.14 = 904.32

The new volume of the sphere is 904.32 in^3
