Answer:

Volume of a cone $=942.86cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the radius of a cone is 15cm and its height is 4cm

That is r=15cm and h=4cm

To find the volume of a cone :

volume of a cone $=\frac{\pi r^2h}{3}$ cubic units

Now substitute the values in the formula we get

volume of a cone $=\frac{(\frac{22}{7}) (15)^2(4)}{3}$

$=\frac{(\frac{22}{7}) (225)(4)}{3}$

$=\frac{19800}{21}$

$=942.857$

Now round to nearest hundredth

$=942.86$

Therefore Volume of a cone $=942.86cm^3$

Find the volume of the cone.

Alona [7]

answer:

2,558

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the volume of a cone is v=πr²h/3

with that let us 'fill in' the formula-

v=π*9.6²*26.5/3

v=2,557.51

then since you've asked us to round the answer to the nearest whole number that would be 2,558

good luck :)

i hope this helps

brainliest would be highly appreciated

have a nice day!

Mary and Jeff both have jobs at a baseball stadium selling bags of peanuts. They each get paid $12 per game

Anarel [89]

A) 1.75p + 12 = 54
1.75p = 42
p = 24 bags

b) 1.75(70) + 12 = b
122.5 + 12 = b
b = $134.50

The surface area of a right circular cone of radius r and height h is S = πr√ r 2 + h 2 , and its volume is V = 1 3 πr2h. What i

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Required largest volume is 0.407114 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given surface area of a right circular cone of radious r and height h is,

$S=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}$

and volume,

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

To find the largest volume if the surface area is S=8 (say), then applying Lagranges multipliers,

$f(r,h)=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

subject to,

$g(r,h)=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}=8\hfill (1)$

We know for maximum volume $r\neq 0$ . So let $\lambda$ be the Lagranges multipliers be such that,

$f_r=\lambda g_r$

$\implies \frac{2}{3}\pi r h=\lambda (\pi \sqrt{r^2+h^2}+\frac{\pi r^2}{\sqrt{r^2+h^2}})$

$\implies \frac{2}{3}r h= \lambda (\sqrt{r^2+h^2}+\frac{ r^2}{\sqrt{r^2+h^2}})\hfill (2)$

And,

$f_h=\lambda g_h$

$\implies \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2=\lambda \frac{\pi rh}{\sqrt{r^2+h^2}}$

$\implies \lambda=\frac{r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}}{3h}\hfill (3)$

Substitute (3) in (2) we get,

$\frac{2}{3}rh=\frac{r\sqrt{R^2+h^2}}{3h}(\sqrt{R^2+h^2+}+\frac{r^2}{\sqrt{r^2+h^2}})$

$\implies \frac{2}{3}rh=\frac{r}{3h}(2r^2+h^2)$

$\implies h^2=2r^2$

Substitute this value in (1) we get,

$\pi r\sqrt{h^2+r^2}=8$

$\implies \pi r \sqrt{2r^2+r^2}=8$

$\implies r=\sqrt{\frac{8}{\pi\sqrt{3}}}\equiv 1.21252$

Then,

$h=\sqrt{2}(1.21252)\equiv 1.71476$

Hence largest volume,

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times \pi \times\frac{\pi}{8\sqrt{3}}\times 1.71476=0.407114$
