A snow cone is a tasty treat with flavored ice and a spherical bubble gum ball at the bottom: Snow cone with spherical bubble gum ball at the bottom The radius of the cone is 1.25 inches, and its height is 2.75 inches. If the diameter of the bubble gum ball is 0.5 inches, what is the closest approximation of the volume of the cone that can be filled with flavored ice? 4.43 in3 0.07 in3 13.50 in3 4.50 in3

so find volume of cone and volume of spherical gum gum thingy then minus the volume of gum gum thingy from volume of cone that will be ur answer

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

volume of a cone formula ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi*r^2 *h/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cone's volume you will get 4.5

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

how do i find the sphere thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well 4/3 *pi*r^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is 0.52

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait wait 0.5 is diameter :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radius will be 0.25 >_> stoopid me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sphere's volume 0.065

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 4.5 - 0.065 = ?

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

4.435

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

Answer is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so answer is A :D
