An ellipsoid has radii with lengths of 5 , 6 , and 7 . A portion the size of a hemisphere with a radius of 5 is removed form the ellipsoid. What is the remaining volume of the ellipsoid?

The remaining volume is =(590pi)/3

Explanation:

The volume of an ellipsoid is =(4piabc)/3

The volume of a hemisphere is =(2pir^3)/3

The remaining volume is =(4piabc)/3-(2pir^3)/3

=((2pi)/3)(2abc-r^3)

Here,

a=5

b=6

c=7

r=5

Therefore, the remaining volume is

=((2pi)/3)(2*5*6*7-5^3)

=(10pi)/3(84-25)

=(590pi)/3
