Question

Snowy's Snow Cones has a special bubble gum snow cone on sale. The cone is a regular snow cone that has a spherical piece of bubble gum nested at the bottom of the cone. The radius of the snow cone is 2 inches, and the height of the cone is 3 inches. If the diameter of the bubble gum is 0.5 inches, which of the following can be used to calculate the volume of the cone that can be filled with flavored ice?
1 over 3(3.14)(2^2)(3) − 4 over 3(3.14)(0.253)
1 over 3(3.14)(3^2)(2) − 4 over 3(3.14)(0.253)
1 over 3(3.14)(2^2)(3) − 4 over 3(3.14)(0.53)
1 over 3(3.14)(3^2)(2) − 4 over 3(3.14)(0.53)

Answer 1

please help

Answer 2

The volume of space left in the cone after the gum is placed, is the total cone volume take away the sphere volume

Answer 3

lol i am heaving one of those days i think i figured it out

Answer 4

i think its the third option

Answer 5

looking at the answers helps out too, they are all the same form, to give an idea

Answer 6

thanks for the help though

Answer 7

Volume Cone - Volume Sphere = (1/3 * pi * r^2 * h ) - (4/3 * pi * R^3)

r = cone radius
h = cone height
R=sphere radius , half the diameter

Answer 8

the sphere radius, 0.25 , does not match any answers,
R^3 = 0.25^3 = 0.0156

unless you forgot the (3) cube at the end, and they are using 0.253 as the radius ,half 0.5

Answer 9

0.25^3
