Answer:
The Volume of large cone is 19.545 greater than the smaller cone
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Size of the small cone = 3.5 inches
Diameter of the small cone = 3 inches
Size of the large cone = 3.5 inches
Diameter of the small cone = 3 inches
To Find:
How much greater, to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch, is the volume of the larger cone than the volume of the smaller cone = ?
Solution:
Volume of the small cone :
Radius =
Radius =
Radius = 1.5 inches
volume of the cone =
substituting the values,
=>
=>
=> 16.485
Volume of the large cone :
Volume of the large cone :
Radius =
Radius =
Radius = 2.25 inches
volume of the cone =
substituting the values,
=>
=>
=>36.06
Now ,
volume of small cone - volume of large cone
=>36.06 - 16.485
=>19.545
