6 feet because 8 / 12 reduces to 2 / 3 and you multiply 2 times 3

Hi there.

So, we've got the dimensions. 

<em>l</em> = 12, <em /><em>w</em> = 8

We know that the width has been divided by 4. That means we also divide the length by 4. This gives us the new dimensions of:

<em>l</em> = 3, <em>w</em> = 2

A = <em>lw</em> 

3 · 2 = 6 ft²

Cheers~

a cylinder and a cone start with the same radius and height the radius of the cone is then trippled and the height of the cone i
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Therefore the cone is the greatest relative increase in volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cone:

Original cone = (1/3)π(h)r^2

Changed cone = (1/3)π(h/2)(3r)^2

= (1/2)(1/3)π(h)9r^2

= (9/2) * Original cone

=4.5 * Original cone

Cylinder:

Original cylinder = π(h)r^2

Changed cylinder = π(2h)r^2

=2 * Original cylinder

Therefore the cone is the greatest relative increase in volume.
