If you factor the equation you can see what the solutions are. Two factor a quadratic of the form ax^2+bx+c, find two values which satisfy two conditions...

jk=ac=-15 and j+k=b=-2 so j and k must be -5 and 3 so the factors are:

(x-5)(x+3)

So the other solution is x=5

which measurement is closest to the volume of the cone in cubic inches . the height is 7.5 & the radius is 5.62 . show work

Dominik [7]

To find the volume, you would use the formula V=1/3 pi times radius squared times the height. So, you would multiply 1/3 x 3.14 x 5.62^2 x 7.5. This equals approximately 248 cubic inches.
