The formula for the volume of a cone is given by: V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h, where V is the volume, π is pi, r is the radius, and h is the height.
Given that the radius is 3 cm and the height is 9 cm, we can substitute these values into the formula: V = 1/3 * 3.14 * (3 cm)^2 * 9 cm.
V = 1/3 * 3.14 * 9 cm^2 * 9 cm.
V ≈ 84.78 cm^3. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume of candy filled in the hat is approximately 84.8 cm^3.
Maria filled a cone shaped birthday hat with candy. if the hat had a radius of 3cm and a height of 9cm, what is the volume (in cubic units) of candy filled the hat with? assume that pi = 3.14 and round to the nearest tenth
