Answer:
11 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cone formula is:
Where V is the volume,
r is the radius (half of diameter)
h is the height
Given,
h = 15
V = 475.17
We find the radius (r) first by substituting given values:
The radius (r) is 5.5 yards
We need the diameter, which is DOUBLE THE RADIUS, so diameter would be:
Diameter = 5.5 * 2 = 11 yards
Isolate the root expression:
![\sqrt[3]{x+1}+2=0\implies\sqrt[3]{x+1}=-2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%7D%2B2%3D0%5Cimplies%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%7D%3D-2)
Take the third power of both sides:
![\sqrt[3]{x+1}=-2\implies(\sqrt[3]{x+1})^3=(-2)^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%7D%3D-2%5Cimplies%28%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%7D%29%5E3%3D%28-2%29%5E3)
Simplify:
![(\sqrt[3]{x+1})^3=(-2)^3\implies x+1=-8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%7D%29%5E3%3D%28-2%29%5E3%5Cimplies%20x%2B1%3D-8)
Isolate and solve for
:
Since the cube root function is bijective, we know this won't be an extraneous solution, but it doesn't hurt to verify that this is correct. When, we have
![\sqrt[3]{-9+1}=\sqrt[3]{-8}=\sqrt[3]{(-2)^3}=-2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-9%2B1%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-8%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%28-2%29%5E3%7D%3D-2)
as required.
Take the third power of both sides:
