You are filling paper cones with popcorn for a party.
The radius of each cone is 8 centimeters and the height
is 15 centimeters. Find the amount of popcorn needed to
fill the paper cone to the nearest cubic centimeter. Use
3.14 for π

Answer:

The amount of popcorn needed to  fill the paper cone is [tex]V=1,005\ cm^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cone is equal to

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]r=8\ cm[/tex]

[tex]h=15\ cm[/tex]

[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]

substitute

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(8)^{2}(15)[/tex]

[tex]V=1,005\ cm^{3}[/tex]
