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

Elena is playing a dice game with her father. She will win if she DOES NOT roll a 1, 3, or 6. Find the probability that Elana wi
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The probability that she was on her next roll is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If she does not roll 1,3 or 6, she wins

So if she rolls 2,4 and 6 , she wins

The probability of rolling each is 1/6 each

So the probability of rolling any of the three will be:

1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 = 1/2

The answer is D. Think of the Pythagorean Theorem which states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. The Pythagorean Identities used in trigonometry are the angle version which can be used to simplify expressions.
