Hat is the volume of a cone with a height of 9.5 inches and a radius of 8 inches? Cone V = 1 3 Bh

1. Rewrite the formula for the base area:     V = 1 3 πr2h
2. Substitute the values into the formula:     V = 1 3 π(82)(9.5)
3.Evaluate the power:             V = 1 3 π(64)(9.5)
4.Simplify using multiplication:          V = 1 3 π(608)
