1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the volume of a composite solid consisting of a cone and a hemisphere. The radius of both the cone and hemisphere is 5 inches, and the height of the cone is 14 inches. We need to round the answer to the nearest tenth.

2. Solution Steps

First, we calculate the volume of the cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is:
Vcone=13πr2hV_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h
where rr is the radius and hh is the height.
Substituting the given values, we have:
Vcone=13π(52)(14)=13π(25)(14)=350π3V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi (5^2)(14) = \frac{1}{3} \pi (25)(14) = \frac{350\pi}{3}
Next, we calculate the volume of the hemisphere. The formula for the volume of a sphere is 43πr3\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3. A hemisphere is half of a sphere, so the volume of a hemisphere is:
Vhemisphere=1243πr3=23πr3V_{hemisphere} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3
Substituting the given value for the radius, we have:
Vhemisphere=23π(53)=23π(125)=250π3V_{hemisphere} = \frac{2}{3} \pi (5^3) = \frac{2}{3} \pi (125) = \frac{250\pi}{3}
Now, we add the volume of the cone and the volume of the hemisphere to find the total volume of the composite solid:
Vtotal=Vcone+Vhemisphere=350π3+250π3=600π3=200πV_{total} = V_{cone} + V_{hemisphere} = \frac{350\pi}{3} + \frac{250\pi}{3} = \frac{600\pi}{3} = 200\pi
Now, we need to approximate the value using π3.14159\pi \approx 3.14159:
Vtotal=200π200×3.14159=628.318V_{total} = 200\pi \approx 200 \times 3.14159 = 628.318
Rounding to the nearest tenth, we get 628.
