The ice-cream is made up of of a sugar cone and a scoop in the shape of half a sphere
Hence, the formula for the volume V of the total cubic inches of ice cream is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V\text{ = Volume of cone + half a volume of a sphere} \\ V\text{ = }\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\text{ + }\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Given:
height of cone = 4.6 inches
radius of cone = 1.7 inches
radius of sphere = 1.7 inches
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V\text{ = }\frac{1}{3}\text{ }\times\text{ }\pi\times\text{ 1.7}^2\text{ }\times\text{ 4.6 + }\frac{2}{3}\text{ }\times\text{ }\pi\times\text{ 1.7}^3 \\ =\text{ 24.211 in}^3 \\ \approx\text{ 24.21 in}^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Answer:
24.21 cubic inches
