Answer:
[tex]40\ m^{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube
Let
z-----> scale factor
x-----> the volume of the dilated cone
y-----> the volume of the original cone
[tex]z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}[/tex]
In this problem we have
[tex]z=1/5[/tex]
[tex]y=5,000\ m^{3}[/tex]
substitute and solve for x
[tex](1/5)^{3}=\frac{x}{5,000}[/tex]
[tex](1/125)=\frac{x}{5,000}[/tex]
[tex]x=5,000/125=40\ m^{3}[/tex]
