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)
The volume of a cone can be calculated using the formula V = (1/3)πr^2h
Given:
- Diameter = 6 inches, so radius = 6 / 2 = 3 inches
- Height = 7 inches
Plugging in the values:
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 3^2 * 7
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 9 * 7
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 63
V = 3.14 * 21
V = 65.94 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the cone is approximately 65.94 cubic inches.
