Answer:

8.6

Explanation:

I know this has been answered but I will provide the way I found my answer

Since the formula of the volume of a cone is V=1/3 pi*(r)^2 (h)

and in this case the volume has already been found we need to work backwards.You need to plugin and find what will fit into the formula for the volume of a cone that will equal 225 in ^3. If we plugin 8.6 into V= 1/3 pi*(5)^2 (8.6) you get 225.15 round down and you will get 225.
