Question

Austin uses a mold to make cone-shaped cupcakes. The diameter of the mold is 12 inches, and

Answer 1

Answer:

25.9

Step-by-step explanation:

So calculate volume of the mold, which is a cone: (pi) r2 (h/3) where r is radius and h is height

So diameter/2 = r which is 1.5 in

h = 2 in

V = (3.14)(1.52)(2/3) = 4.71 in3

If 1 in3 = 0.55 oz, and 1 mold = 4.71 in3, then one mold = 2.59 oz

2.59 oz * 10 cupcakes = 25.9 oz total

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a cone is

pi×r² × h/3

the radius is always half of the diameter, so, it is here

12/2 = 6 in.

h = 10 in.

so, we have here

pi×6²×10/3 = 3.14 × 36 × 10/3 = 3.14×120 = 376.8 in³.

2 cupcakes have then

376.8 × 2 = 753.6 in³

1 in³ = 0.55 ounces

so, the weight of 2 such cupcakes is

0.55 × 753.6 = 414.48 ounces ≈ 414.5 ounces
