Answer:

104.7 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The ball has a radius of 5 inches and

the cylinder has a height of 8 inches

Step two:

The volume of the cylinder

[tex]v= \pi r^2 h[/tex]

substitute our data

[tex]v= 3.142*5^2*8\\\\v=628.4in^3[/tex]

The volume of the ball

[tex]v=4/3 \pi r^3[/tex]

substitute our data

[tex]v= 4/3 *3.142*5^3\\\\v= 523.7 in^3[/tex]

The space will have a volume of

=628.4-523.7

=104.7 in^3
