Question
What is the volume, in cubic inches, of a cone with a diameter of 6 inches and a height of 7 inches? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
cubic inches
The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
First, we need to find the radius of the cone. Since the diameter is 6 inches, the radius is half of that, so the radius is 3 inches.
Plugging in the values into the formula:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(3^2)(7)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(9)(7)
V = (3.14)(3)(7)
V = 65.94 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 65.94 cubic inches.
