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 r = 5 inches and h = 15 inches into the formula:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(5^2)(15)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(25)(15)
V = (0.33333)(3.14)(375)
V = 392.68 cubic inches
Therefore, the hanging flower vase can hold approximately 392.68 cubic inches of water.
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

i think thats wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's re-calculate the volume using the correct formula for the volume of a cone:
V = (1/3)πr^2h
Substitute r = 5 inches and h = 15 inches into the formula:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(5^2)(15)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(25)(15)
V = (0.333)(3.14)(375)
V = 392.5 cubic inches
Therefore, the hanging flower vase can hold approximately 392.5 cubic inches of water.
V = (1/3)πr^2h
Substitute r = 5 inches and h = 15 inches into the formula:
V = (1/3)(3.14)(5^2)(15)
V = (1/3)(3.14)(25)(15)
V = (0.333)(3.14)(375)
V = 392.5 cubic inches
Therefore, the hanging flower vase can hold approximately 392.5 cubic inches of water.
