The formula for the surface area of a sphere is:
Surface Area = 4πr^2
Given that the basketball has a diameter of 9.2 inches, the radius (r) would be half of the diameter, which is 4.6 inches.
Surface Area = 4 * 3.14 * (4.6)^2
Surface Area = 4 * 3.14 * 21.16
Surface Area = 84.64 square inches
Therefore, the surface area of the basketball is 84.64 square inches.
