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

3p + 2q = 14<br> 10p + 6q = 44<br> What is p and what is q
Airida [17]

Answer:

p = 2 ; q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given tbe equation :

3p + 2q = 14 - - - (1)

10p + 6q = 44 - - -(2)

What is p and what is q

This is a simultaneous equation ; using elimination method :

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 2

18p + 12q = 84 - - - - (3)

20p + 12q = 88 - - - (4)

Subtract (3) and (4)

-2p = - 4

p = 4/2

p = 2

Put p = 2 in (1)

3p + 2q = 14

3(2) + 2q = 14

6 + 2q = 14

2q = 14 - 6

2q = 8

q = 8/2

q = 4

p = 2 ; q = 4
