A hanging flower vase is in the shape of a cone with a radius of 5 inches and a height of 15 inches. What volume of water can the flower vase hold? Use 3.14 for π .(1 point) Responses 1,570 cubic inches 1,570 cubic inches 392.5 cubic inches 392.5 cubic inches 1,177.5 cubic inches 1,177.5 cubic inches 78.5 cubic inches 78.5 cubic inches

1 answer

The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h.

Given that the radius (r) is 5 inches and the height (h) is 15 inches, we can substitute these values into the formula:

V = (1/3)(3.14)(5^2)(15)
= (1/3)(3.14)(25)(15)
= (3.14)(375)
= 1,177.5 cubic inches

Therefore, the hanging flower vase can hold 1,177.5 cubic inches of water.
