Question

At Robin's Snow Cones, the shaved ice portion of the cone is shaped like a perfect sphere with a diameter of 8

Answer 1

Answer:

134 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The extended part is basically the volume of HALF A SPHERE.

First, the volume of full sphere is:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Hence, the half sphere volume would be:

$Half \ Sphere = \frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{2}=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

We know the diameter is 8, radius is HALF OF THAT, so

Radius = 8/2 = 4

Substituting, we find (remembering to use 3.14 as pi):

$\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\\=\frac{2}{3}\pi (4)^3\\=\frac{2}{3}(3.14)(64)\\=133.97$

To the nearest cubic centimeter, the answer is:

134 cubic centimeters
