2/3x - 14/3 = -2
3(2/3x - 14/3) = -2(3)
2x - 14 = -6
2x = -6 + 14
2x = 8
x = 8/2
x= 4
hope this helps :)
Given that grain is falling from a chute onto the ground, forming a conical pile whose diameter is always three times its height.
So if D is the diameter and h is the height of the conical pile then we can write:
D=3h
We know that diameter = 2r, where r is the radius
2r=3h

Volume of conical pile is given by formula

Given that volume is 1110 cubic feet.
Now plug the values of Volume and r into equation of volume





take cube root of both sides
7.78103342467=h
Hence height is approx 7.78 feet.
Answer: yes it does
2x= 8
x= 8/2
x=4.
