the formula for the volume of a cylinder is V=πr²h A cylinder has a volume of 300p feet³ and a radius of 5 feet (A) Solve the formula V= πr²h for h (B) Find the height of the cylinder

Respuesta :

[tex]V=\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h[/tex]

A) To solve the formula for h:

1. Divide both sides of the equation into π*r²:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{V}{\pi\cdot r^2}=\frac{\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h}{\pi\cdot r^2} \\ \\ \frac{V}{\pi\cdot r^2}=h \end{gathered}[/tex]

B) You have the next data:

V=300πfeet³

r=5feet

Substitute those values in the formula you get in A) and calculate the h:

[tex]\begin{gathered} h=\frac{300\pi\cdot ft^3}{\pi\cdot(5ft)^2} \\ \\ h=\frac{300ft^3}{25ft^2}=12ft \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the height of the cylinder is 12 feet
