A scoop of ice cream in the shape of a whole sphere sits in a right cone. the radius of the ice cream scoop is 2.5 cm and the radius of the cone is 2.5 cm. How tall must the height of the cone be to fit all the ice cream without spilling if it melts? SHOW ALL YOUR WORK!!!

(At least) 10 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of the ice cream scoop is 2.5 cm and the radius of the cone is also 2.5 cm.

We want to determine the height of the cone such that it will fit all of the ice cream when it melts without any spilling.

First, we will find the volume of the ice cream scoop. The volume for a sphere is given by:

Since the radius is 2.5 cm, the volume of the full ice cream scoop is:

Use a calculator:

The volume of a cone is given by:

The radius of the cone is 2.5 cm. Therefore:

The volume of the cone should be equal to the volume of the scoop. So:

Solve for h:

The height of the cone should be (at least) 10 cm.

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
