Answer 1

Answer:

There is 2.887 quarts of oil in the funnel

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

A funnel is in the shape of a cone with a radius of 4 inches and a height of

10 inches. The funnel is filled with oil. How many quarts of oil are in the funnel?

Solution

As we know, volume of the cone is given by

$V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h$

Here,

V = volume of the cone

r is the radius of the base of the cone

h is the height of the cone

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

$V = \frac{1}{3} *3.14*4*4*10\\V = 167.467$ Cubic inch

As given

1 quarts = 58 cubic inch

Total number of quarts of oil

$\frac{167.467}{58} \\2.887$

There is 2.887 quarts of oil in the funnel
