The volume V of a sphere with a radius r is given by the formula V=4/3 *pi*r^3 . Find the radius of a ball with a volume of 41 cubic inches to the nearest hundredth of an inch.
------------------------
V= (4/3)*pi*r^3
---
41 = (4/3)*pi*r^3
---
r^3 = (3/4)41/pi
----
r^3 = (123)/(4pi)
---
r = [123/4pi]^(1/3)
---
r is approximately 2.1391 inch
