Answer:

Correct answer:  Vf = 38 π

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Vc = 54 π

The ratio of the height of the cone and the height of the frustum is:

Hc : Hf = 3 : 1  ⇒ Hc = 3 · Hf

The ratio of the radius R of the base of the cone to the radius r of the upper base of the frustum is:

R : r = Hc : (Hc - Hf)  ⇒ R : r = (3· Hf) : (3 · Hf - Hf) ⇒ R : r = 3 · Hf : 2 · Hf

R : r = 3 : 2 ⇒  r = (2/3) · R

The formula for calculating the volume of a cone is:

Vc = (R² · π · Hc) / 3 = (R² · π · 3 · Hf) / 3 = R² · π · Hf

The formula for calculating the volume of a frustum is:

Vf = (π · Hf · (R² + R · r + r²)) / 3 = (π · Hf · (R² + R · (2/3) · R + ((2/3) R)²)) / 3

Vf = (π · Hf · (R² + (2/3) ·R² + (4/9) · R²)) / 3 ⇒

Vf = (π · Hf · ( (9/9)R² + (6/9) ·R² + (4/9) · R²)) / 3 ⇒

Vf = (π · Hf · (19/9) · R²) / 3 = (19/27) · R² · π · Hf

Vc / Vf = (R² · π · Hf) / ((19/27) · R² · π · Hf)

R², π and Hf were shortened and we get:

Vc / Vf = 27 / 19  ⇒  Vf = (19 · Vc) / 27 ⇒

Vf = 19 · 54 · π / 27 = 38 π

Vf = 38 π

Find the value of y, if the distance travelled<br> between the peints (2, y) and (-4, 3) is 10..
Rudiy27

Answer: y=11.

Step-by-step explanation:

(2;y_1)\ \ \ \ (-4;3)\ \ \ \ \ L=10\ \ \ \ \  y_1 > 0\ \ \ \ y_1=?\\The\  distance\  travelled\ between\  the\  peints:\\L=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)}\\ 10=\sqrt{(-4-2)^2+(3-y_1)^2}\\ 10=\sqrt{(-6)^2+3^2-2*3*y_1+y_1^2}\\ 10=\sqrt{36+9-6y_1+y_1^2} \\10=\sqrt{45-6y_1+y_1^2}\\10*10= \sqrt{45-6y_1+y_1^2}*\sqrt{45-6y_1+y_1^2}\\100=45-6y_1+y^2_1\\

y^2-6y_1+45=100\\y_1^2-6y_1-55=0\\y^2_1-6y_1-5y+5y-55=0\\y^2_1-11y_1+5y_1-55=0\\y_1*(y_1-11)+5*(y_1-11)=0\\(y_1-11)*(y_1+5)=0\\y_1-11=0\\y_1=11.\\y_1+5=0\\y_1=-5\notin\ (y_1 > 0).
