are you in/have you taken, calculus?

anonymous · Answer

no im in geometry

anonymous · Answer

okay, so you just need to use the equation for the volume of the cone minus the equation for the volume of a sphere.

anonymous · Answer

im confused though, like i dont understand can you please help me ?

anonymous · Answer

radius of the cone (r_c)=1.5
radius of sphere (r_s)=diameter/2=.25
what are your equations for volume of cone and sphere?
