To calculate the volume of the hanging flower vase, we need to use the formula for the volume of a cone, which is given by: V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h.
In this case, the radius, r, is 5 inches and the height, h, is 15 inches.
Plugging the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 5^2 * 15
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 25 * 15
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 375
V = 1.047 * 375
V = 392.625 cubic inches
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume of water the flower vase can hold is approximately 392.5 cubic inches.
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
