Mia has a conical container filled with chocolates. She knows that the volume of the container is equal to one-third of the product of, the square of the radius of the base of the container, and the height of the container. Mia measured the height of the container and found it to be 14 centimeters. She also measured the radius of the base of the container and found it to be 4 centimeters. If V represents the volume of the conical container, then which of the following equations can be used to calculate the volume of the container?

For this case what you should do is create the equation based on:

"She knows that the volume of the container is equal to one-third of the product, the square of the radius of the base of the container, and the height of the container"

We have then that the Volume is given by:

V = (1/3) * (r ^ 2) * (h)

where,

r: radius of the base.

h: height of the container.

answer

The volume of the container is calculated with the following equation:

V = (1/3) * (r ^ 2) * (h)
