Answer:
19.6 cubic centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of two similar 3D figures' volumes is equivalent to the ratio of their corresponding lengths (whether it's width, height, length, radius, etc) cubed.
Here, we know the cones are similar, and we know the smaller radius is 2 and the larger radius is 3. Then the ratio of the volume of the smaller one to the volume of the larger one is .
We also know the actual volume of the larger cone is 66. So, if x is the volume of the smaller cone, we have the proportion:
x / 66 = 8 / 27
Cross-multiply:
27x = 66 * 8 = 528
Divide by 27:
x = 528/27 ≈ 19.6
The answer is thus 19.6 cubic centimeters.

We are asked to solve for the width "x" in the given problem. To visualize the problem, see attached drawing.
We have the area of the swimming pool such as:
Area SP = l x w
Area SP = 10 * 16
Area SP = 160 feet2
Area of the swimming pool plus the sidewalk with uniform width:
Area SP + SW = (10 + x) * (16 + x)
160 + 155 = 160 + 10x + 16x + x2
160 -160 + 155 = 26x + x2
155 = 26 x + x2
x2 + 26x -155= 0
Solving for x, we need to use quadratic formula and the answer is 5 feet.
