Answer:

11.8 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

where r is the radius and h is the height.

For our ice cream cone:

r = 1.5 inches

h= 5 inches

So all we have to do is plug in our values and solve for the volume:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}*\pi *1.5^{2} *5 = 11.781[/tex]

So our final answer is 11.8 cubic inches.
