At a sand and gravel plant, sand is falling off a conveyor and onto a conical pile at a rate of 16 cubic feet per minute. The di
ameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude. At what rate (in ft/min) is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 12 feet high? (Hint: The formula for the volume of a cone is V = 1 3 πr2h.)
