As runners in a marathon go by, volunteers hand them small cone shaped cups of water. The cups have the dimensions shown. Abigail sloshes 2/3 of the water out of her cup before she gets a chance to drink any. What is the volume of water remaining in Abigail's cup?

Answer:

Explanation:

first the equation for a cone is
\pi r^2(h)/(3)


V=\pi *3^(2) *(8)/(3) \\ =\pi *9*(8)/(3) \\ =(72)/(3) \pi \\ =24\pi

so since Abigail spilled 2/3 of the water then you do


24\pi * (1)/(3)\\ =8\pi

so overall the volume of the remaning water is 8π.
