What is the difference between the volume of a cone and the volume of the cylinder

amm1812

The volume of a cone is always 3 times smaller than that of its corresponding cylinder (that is, a cylinder with the same height and base radius).

As in:

Volume of a cylinder= πr²h

and Volume of a cone=⅓πr²h

But just in case you were referring to an actual difference, then that would be ⅔πr²h, since 1—⅓ = ⅔.

NeTakaya

Answer:

The boys club sold 52 bags of hardwood mulch and 84 bags of pine bark mulch

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of bags of hardwood mulch sold

y ----> the number of bags of pine bark mulch sold

we know that

A local boys club sold 136 bags of mulch and made a total of $400

so

$x+y=136$ ----> equation A

$3.25x+2.75y=400$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

Using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (52,84)

see the attached figure

therefore

The boys club sold 52 bags of hardwood mulch and 84 bags of pine bark mulch
