Answer 1

To find the volume of a cone, you can use the formula V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h, where r is the radius of the base of the cone and h is the height of the cone.

Given that the radius of the cone is 5 inches and the height is 18 inches, we can plug these values into the formula:

V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 5^2 * 18
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 25 * 18
V = (1/3) * 3.14 * 450
V = (1/3) * 1413
V = 471 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the cone is 471 cubic inches. The closest answer choice is 423.9 cubic inches.
