Answer 1

Do you know the formula??

Answer 2

i dont actually

Answer 3

It's ok. That's why you're here:)

Answer 4

ok so you can help =D

Answer 5

The volume can be found by this formula:
\[V=\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\times S~base \times h\]

Answer 6

ok hold on let me get a pen and paper

Answer 7

Go right ahead:)

Answer 8

wait i already have on but ok :)

Answer 9

ok so how would i do this :/

Answer 10

I provided you the formula already. All you have to do is plug in the numbers:)

Answer 11

wait so it would be set up as v=1/3x12x7?

Answer 12

Yep! That's what is is:)

Answer 13

So, what does that equal?

Answer 14

ummmmmmmm

Answer 15

It's not that hard when you have it already.."Given" :D

Answer 23

got tuck on this one as well

Answer 24

I gotcha:) Hang on real quick :D

Answer 25

The volume of a cone is:
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } \pi r^2h\]
h = height
and pi r^2 is = to the area of the base of the cone....which you are also given (150)
So now..It becomes to.....
\[V=\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }(150)(6)\]

Answer 26

300?

Answer 27

Yep! Excellent!!!:)
