What is the length of the cylinder's height? Please help

raketka [301]

Answer:

Height = 9 cm which means Option C is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given ,

Volume of cylinder = 225π cm³

Radius of cylinder = 5 cm

And , we have to find the height of cylinder .

We know that ,

$\longrightarrow \pink{ \boxed{Volume \: of \: Cylinder = \pi r {}^{2}h }} \longleftarrow$

Our solution starts from here :

$\longmapsto \: \pi \: r {}^{2} h = 225\pi$

Step 1 : Cancelling π with π :

$\longmapsto \: \cancel{\pi} \: r {}^{2} h = 225 \cancel{\pi}$

Step 2 : Substituting value of radius which is 5 cm in the formula :

$\longmapsto \: (5) {}^{2} \times h = 225$

$\longmapsto \: 25h = 225$

Step 3 : Transposing 25 to right hand side :

$\longmapsto \: h = \frac{225}{25}$

Step 4 : Cancelling 225 by 25 :

$\longmapsto \: \red{\boxed{h = 9 \: cm}}$

Henceforth , height of cylinder is 9 cm

Winning the jackpot in a particular lottery requires that you select the correct five numbers between 1 and 34 and, in a separa

Marina CMI [18]

<h3>The probability of winning the lottery is $\frac{1}{10,295,472}$ </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total numbers in the jackpot = 1 to 34

Now, the number that needed to be drawn = 5

The number of ways , 5 number can be drawn from total 34 numbers :

$^{34} C _5 = \frac{34!}{5!(34-5)!} = 278,256$

Also, in separate draw, the correct number drawn = 1

So, the number of ways that can be done = 30 C 5 x 37

= 278,256 x 37 = 10,295,472

Now, P(win) = $\frac{\textrm{Total favorable attempts}}{\textrm{Total attempts}} = \frac{1}{10,295,472}$

Hence, the probability of winning the lottery is $\frac{1}{10,295,472}$
