A cone has a diameter of 3 inches the cone holds 12 cubic inches of water to the nearest in what is the height
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A cone's volume can be found using the formula V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h. If the cone has a diameter of 3 inches then its radius is half r= 1.5 inches. Substitute r = 1.5 and V = 12 cubic inches.

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \\12 = \frac{1}{3} \pi (1.5)^2 h \\12 = \frac{1}{3} \pi (2.25) h\\12 = 2.355h\\5.10 = h

This means the height of the cone is 5.10 inches or to the nearest inch 5 inches.

Plot of land between two roads are laid out according to the boundaries shown. The boundaries between the two roads are parallel
FinnZ [79.3K]
Given: 
                Cheshire Road           Shelby Road
Plot 1           40 yards                       48 yards
Plot 3                x                                56 yards


To solve for x, we get the ratio and proportion of both plots.

40/48 = x/56

Do cross multiplication.

40 * 56 = 48 * x
2,240 = 48x
2,240/48 = 48x/48
46.67 = x

Plot 3 of Chesire Road measures 46.67 or 46 2/3 yards.  Choice A.
