Answer:

1386 in³

Explanation:

Volume of the composite cone = volume of a hemisphere + volume of a cone

=>Find the volume of cone

Volume of cone = ⅓πr²h

π = 3.142

r = 7 in

h = =√(15² - 7²) [using Pythagorean theorem to solve for height given the slant height and radius]

h = √(225 - 49)

h = √176 ≈ 13 in

Volume of cone = ⅓*3.142*7²*13

= ⅓*2001.454 ≈ 667 in³

=>Find volume of hemisphere.

Volume of hemisphere = ½*volume of sphere = ½*4/3πr³ = ⅔πr³

π = 3.142

r = 7 in

Volume = ⅔*3.142*7³ ≈ 719 in³

Volume of composite figure = 667+719 = 1386 in³
