Think of the two pieces together as a single cone of height 19, and its volume.
Then think of only the upper piece as a cone, and find its volume.
The volume of the frustum is the total volume minus the volume of the upper piece.
The volume of a cone is:

Total volume:

Volume of upper cone:

Volume of frustum:
Answer:
w = 3 is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to get w by itself.
<em>(2w - 1)/(4) = 2 - w </em><u>You will add the w on both sides.</u>
<em>(3w - 1)/(4) = 2 </em><u>You will multiply 4 on both sides.</u>
<em>3w - 1 = 8 </em><u>You will add 1 on both sides.</u>
<em>3w = 9 </em><u>You will divide 3 on both sides.</u>
w = 3 is your answer.
