1015.91 cm3\text{1015.91 cm}^3

Step-by-step solution

6 steps
  1. Identify the given values.

    The frustum has:

    • Top radius, r1=US=3r_1 = US = 3 cm
    • Bottom radius, r2=RV=8r_2 = RV = 8 cm
    • Height of the frustum, h=UV=10h = UV = 10 cm
    • Use π=3.142\pi = 3.142
  2. Write the formula for the volume of a frustum.

    The volume of a frustum is given by the formula:

    V=13πh(r12+r1r2+r22)V = \frac{1}{3} \pi h (r_1^2 + r_1 r_2 + r_2^2)
  3. Substitute the values into the formula.

    V=13×3.142×10×(32+(3)(8)+82)V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.142 \times 10 \times (3^2 + (3)(8) + 8^2)
  4. Calculate the terms inside the parenthesis.

    V=13×3.142×10×(9+24+64)V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.142 \times 10 \times (9 + 24 + 64) V=13×3.142×10×(97)V = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.142 \times 10 \times (97)
  5. Perform the multiplication.

    V=13×31.42×97V = \frac{1}{3} \times 31.42 \times 97 V=3047.743V = \frac{3047.74}{3} V=1015.9133...V = 1015.9133...
  6. Round the answer to a reasonable number of decimal places.

    V≈1015.91 cm3V \approx 1015.91 \text{ cm}^3

    The volume of the frustum is:

    1015.91 cm3\text{1015.91 cm}^3
