Question

the function ( v(r) = \frac{4}{3}pi r^3 ) can be used to find the volume of air inside a basketball given the radius. what does ( v(r) ) represent?

the radius of the
basketball when
the volume is ( v )

the radius of the
basketball when
the volume is ( r )

the volume of the
basketball when
the radius is ( v )

the volume of the
basketball when
the radius is ( r )

Explanation:

The function \( V(r)=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3} \) is the volume formula for a sphere (a basketball is a sphere). Here, \( r \) is the radius, and \( V(r) \) gives the volume based on the radius \( r \). So \( V(r) \) represents the volume of the basketball when the radius is \( r \).

Answer:

the volume of the basketball when the radius is \( r \)
