I think the formula for the volume of a cone is V=(1/3) x hπr².
r²= 9
1/3= 0.3
= 0.3 x 4 x 3.14 x 9
= 33.912
The answer would be 1,288.
23x56=1,288
The number of potential customers reached by the company is the total number of people that received their promotional material
First mailing list - 2,500 addresses
Second mailing list - 3,500 addresses
Third mailing list - 4,000 addresses
Total is, 2500 + 3500 + 4000
= 10,000
Therefore, their promotional materials reached 10,000 potential customers.
