The volume of a cone with a radius of 7 cm is 147 cubic centimeters. Which expression can be used to find h, the height ofthe cone?147 R72 (h)O 147a147

Respuesta :

The choices are not attached but we can solve the problem from the given information

Answer:

The expression can be used to find h is  [tex]h=\frac{3V}{\pi r^{2}}[/tex]

The height of the cone is [tex]\frac{9}{\pi }[/tex] cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of the cone is V = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] π r² h, where

  • r is the radius of its base
  • h is the height of it

Let us find the height of the cone from the formula of its volume

∵ V = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] π r² h

- Multiply both sides by 3

∴ 3 V = π r² h

- Divide both sides by π r²

∴ [tex]\frac{3V}{\pi r^{2}}=h[/tex]

- Switch the two sides

∴ [tex]h=\frac{3V}{\pi r^{2}}[/tex]

The expression can be used to find h is  [tex]h=\frac{3V}{\pi r^{2}}[/tex]

∵ The radius of the cone is 7 cm

∴ r = 7

∵ The volume of the cone is 147 cm³

∴ V = 147

- Substitute them in the expression of the height to find it

∵  [tex]h=\frac{3(147)}{\pi (7)^{2}}[/tex]

∴ h = [tex]\frac{9}{\pi }[/tex] cm

The height of the cone is [tex]\frac{9}{\pi }[/tex] cm
