The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr²h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height.
We know that the circumference of the base is 5 ft, which means 2πr = 5. Solving for r, we get r = 5/(2π) ≈ 0.7958 ft.
Now we can plug in the values for r and h into the formula for the volume:
V = (1/3)π(0.7958)²(17)
V ≈ 4.2 cubic feet
Rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic foot, the volume of the cone is 4.2 cubic feet.
