Question

A large ice cream cone can hold 143.56 cm of ice cream. The cone is 15 cm tall. What is the radius of the base of the cone? Be sure your answer is in the proper units. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

r = 3.02 cm

Explanation:

V cone = πr²h/3

r = √(3V/πh)

r = √(3(143.56)/π(15))

r = 3.0231297
