The volume of the water is a spherical tank is 1,470.265 cm3
.Determine the depth of water if the tank has a diameter of 30 cm.
:
The formula for this is
V =
d = 30, h = the depth of the water
= 1470.265
multiply both sides by 3
= 4410.795
divide both sides by pi
= 1404
= 1404
A real pain to solve this, try the given solutions
Tried h = 4, not right
Tried h = 6
45(36) + 6^3 = 1404
1620 - 216 = 1404
Solution is b, 6 cm is the depth of the water


a. 8 b. 6 c. 4 d. 10
