Answer: 2.9 in^3

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of a right circular cone is: V = π*r^2*(h/3).

In order to find the radius, you must use the formula: Circumference = 2*π*r. Thus, divide 3.4 by 2 and pi in order to get .5411, the radius.

Plug the radius in and 9.5 in as the height in the formula in order to get the answer.
