Answer:
Radius of the cone's base is 3x ....
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given that the volume of a cone is 3πx³
Height = x units.
The volume of a cone of radius r and height h units is given by:
V= 1/3 π r² *h
Simply plug the values given in the question into the above mentioned equation:
1/3πr²*x = 3*π*x³
1/3r²*x= 3x³
r² = 3*3*x³/x
r²=9x²
Taking square root at both sides we get:
√r² =√9x²
r = 3x
Thus the radius of the cone's base is 3x.
I don't like these computer choice thingies. It detracts from the math.
If we want to eliminate x we multiply the first equation by 5 then add it to the second:
OK, that's how it's done. Reading through the choices, that's choice D.
I'm attaching the solution.. feel free to ask if you have questions.. I basically did long division. Hope this helps.
use the distributive property 10 p-15
That term describes a rate an employer agrees to pay a worker per hour worked.
