A hanging flower vase is in the shape of a cone with a radius of 5 inches and a height of 15 inches. What volume of water can the flower vase hold? Use 3.14 for pi.
The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given:
Radius (r) = 5 inches
Height (h) = 15 inches
Using the formula, we can calculate the volume (V):
V = (1/3)πr^2h
V = (1/3)(3.14)(5^2)(15)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(25)(15)
V = 3.14(125)5
V = 392.5 cubic inches
Therefore, the flower vase can hold 392.5 cubic inches of water.
