The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Substitute the values given in the problem:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(4^2)(12)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(16)(12)
V = (0.3333)(3.14)(192)
V = (639.58368)
V ≈ 639.58 cubic feet
Therefore, the cone-shaped container can store approximately 639.58 cubic feet of feed.
A cone shaped container on a farm is used for storing animal feed. The container has a radius of 4 ft and a height of 12 ft. What volume of feed, in cubic feet, can the container store. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for π
