What is the approximate volume of the cone? Use 3.14 for π. https://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1299500_1300000/1299583/1/eb8c74d9448e1dd720d2449ad84890705bdfa9b7/143809.jpg A.4239 cm3 B.6359 cm3 C.2120 cm3 D.1272 cm3

The volume of a cone is: \[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\pi r ^{2}h\]

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

ok

jabez177 (jabez177):

So let's input them into the equation.

jabez177 (jabez177):

The radius in this figure is 15, right?

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

in think brb

jabez177 (jabez177):

Okay. Do you know what a radius is?

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

um no i think 15cm

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

hello

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

hello @jabez177

jabez177 (jabez177):

Hi!

jabez177 (jabez177):

15 x 15 is the same thing as \[15^2\]

jabez177 (jabez177):

So what is 15 x 15?

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

@jabez177 225

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

divide by 7 right

jabez177 (jabez177):

Nope. You have to now multiply the height which in this case the height is 9 so 225 x 9 = ?

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

@jabez177 2025

jabez177 (jabez177):

Right now we have to multiply by \[\pi \]

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

as expected

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

so piex2025

jabez177 (jabez177):

Yep!

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

6358.5

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

round up to b

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

helllo

jabez177 (jabez177):

No.

jabez177 (jabez177):

Now we divide by 3

OpenStudy (rawfeeds-):

so c

jabez177 (jabez177):

Correct! :)
