The volume of a sphere whose diameter is 18 centimeters is π cubic centimeters. If its diameter were reduced by half, its volume would be
of its original volume.

volume before reducing is 8 times the volume after reducing

Step-by-step explanation:

volume before reducing=

V=4/3πr³=

V=4/3π(9)³=972π cm³

diameter reduced to half=18/2=9 cm

radius=d/2=9/2=4.5 cm

volume of sphere when diameter reduced by 1/2=

V=4/3πr³

v=4/3 (π)(4.5)³=121.5π

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

step-by-step explanation:

the lateral surface area of a sphere is 2πrh where h=2r.

then:

surface area = 4πr^2.

in this case, r=8 units ⇒ surface area = 4π(8 units)^2. = 256π sq. units!

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

hi,

you half the rectangle that you ae asking about so then you would see the scale factor of 1/2 the one u have selected, the one on top is half.

hope this !
