Answer:
the total value of the liquid in the container is $29.4
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a cone
The volume of a cone is expressed as
V=1/3(πr²h)
Given data
Height h= 9 inches
Radius r= diameter/2= 2.5/2= 1.25in
Substituting we have
V= 1/3(3.14)*(1.25)²*9
V= 1/3*(3.14)*14.06
V= 44.156/3
V= 14.7in³
The volume of the cone is 14.7in³
Hence If 1 in³ of liquid costs $2
14.7in³ will cost $x
x= 14.7*2
x= $29.4
