Hmm, that's strange. I got 117.8 for the V, which is essentially the same as yours.
Any other information given in the problem?
Ohhhhh! I get it- I was getting 6x, not 6x^2! I totally forgot about that. That was the only thing screwing me over, haha.
Thank you so much!!
EDIT: @(you need an account to see links) I have another problem, this has to do with measurement though.
Calculate the volume and surface area of this figure.
Obviously I can't show you it, but it's a cone with radius 5 cm and height 4.5 cm.
For volume I keep getting 117.75 cm^3, but that's incorrect according to the back of the textbook.

Nope- nothing else. The answers say it's 300-something.
If you got the same answer, then I guess it's correct. I've had the answers in the back fail me sometimes.
If the answer was something like 353.4, then they forgot to *(1/3); 353.4 is the answer if it were a cylinder.
Yes, I noticed that I had gotten ~353.4 before dividing by three.
You're on par, I guess. Thanks again.
I havent been checking the thread ha sorry~ I tend to forget
