A truckload of fill dirt is dumped in front of a newly-built home. The pile of dirt is cone-shaped. It has a height of 7 feet and a diameter of 15 feet. Find the volume of the dirt to the nearest hundredth.

Vcone =  [pi * r^2 *h]/ 3     where r is the radius and h is the height of the cone....so we have....

 

Vcone =  [ pi * (7.5)^2 * 7]/ 3 = about 412.334 cubic feet
