A machinist drilled a cone-shaped hole into a solid cube of metal as shown. If the cube's sides have a length of 7 centimeters, what is the volume of the metal cube after the cone is drilled? Use 3.14 for pi and round your answer to the nearest tenth. https://nnds-li.brainhoney.com/Resource/19791663,8AD/Assets/assessmentimages/geo%20part%202%20u4l2%203.jpg 223.3 cm3 235.2 cm3 235.3 cm3 253.2 cm3 @michele_laino

here you have to subtract the volume of the cone from the volume of the cube. what is the volume of the cube?

OpenStudy (18jonea):

343

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

now the radius of the cone is 7/2=3.5 cm,

OpenStudy (18jonea):

a\volume of cone = 89.8

OpenStudy (18jonea):

253.2

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
