You use a cone-shaped cup to drink water. The cup has a diameter of 6 centimeters and a height of 12 centimeters. What is the volume of the cup? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

TO find the answer, first you have to find the formula for volume of a cone-
The formula is
V= 1/3 times base times height
So V= (1/3) (pi3^2) (12)
V= 113.04

By the way for the base you have to find the volume of a circle. I divided the diameter by 2 to find the radius.
and pi is 3.14

Answer:

The Volume of the cup is 113.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

Before we can calculate this we need to know what the formula for this figure is. I have attached the formula in the picture below. The measurements in the question are the following

  • r = 6 cm / 2 = 3 cm
  • h = 12 cm

Now that we have this formula and the values of the cup we can plug in the values given to us in the question to calculate the figure's Volume.

[tex]V = \pi*r^{2}*\frac{h}{3}[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi (3^{2})\frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi *9*4[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi *36[/tex]

[tex]V = 113.09[/tex]

Finally, we can see that the Volume of the cup is 113.1 cm (rounded to the nearest tenth)

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
