To find the volume of the sculpture, we need to find the volume of the larger hemisphere and subtract the volume of the smaller hemisphere.
The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is (2/3) * pi * radius³.
For the larger hemisphere with a radius of 20 inches, the volume is (2/3) * 3.14 * 20³ = 33523.47 cubic inches.
For the smaller hemisphere with a radius of 15 inches, the volume is (2/3) * 3.14 * 15³ = 14137.1 cubic inches.
To find the volume of the sculpture, we will subtract the volume of the smaller hemisphere from the volume of the larger hemisphere: 33523.47 - 14137.1 = 19386.37 cubic inches.
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the volume of the sculpture is 19386 cubic inches.
Kaircy created a sculpture by forming a hemisphere with a radius of 20 inches and then removing a hemisphere with a radius of 15 inches from it calculate the volume of his sculpture use 3.14 as an approximation for pi round your answer to the nearest whole number
