Question

These cones are similar. Find the volume of the smaller cone. Round to the nearest tenth. 2 cm 5 cm Volume=[?]cm^ 3 Volume me = 131 cm ^ 3

Answer 1

Answer:

8.4 cm^3 to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the volumes of the 2 cones is the ratio of the cubes of their radii.

So:

5^3 / 2^3 = 131 / v

v = 2^3 * 131 / 5^3

= 8 * 131 / 125

= 8.384.
