Answer:
No. The depth of the water is less than the required depth(2.5 inches<4 inches)
Step-by-step explanation:
-The deepest point of the half-filled vase is the point perpendicular to the sphere's midpoint.
-This point is equivalent to the extreme end of the radius.
-Since, the diameter is 5 inches, the radius is:
[tex]D=2r\\\\r=D/2\\\\=5/2\\\\=2.5 \ inches[/tex]
2.5inches<4 inches
Hence, the water is not deep enough for the flowers.
