Question 33095: The volume of a cylinder (think about the volume of a can) is given by V=pir^2h where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Suppose the volume of the can is 100 cubic centimeters.
a) Write h as a function of r.
b) What is the measurement of the height if the radius of the cylinder is 2 centimeters?
c) Graph this function.

a) V+=+%28pi%29r%5E2h Solve for h.
h+=+V%2F%28pi%29r%5E2
b) If r = 2 cm and V = 100 cubic cm, then:
h+=+100%2F3.14%284%29
h+=+100%2F12.56
h+=+7.98cm
c) The graph of y+=+100%2F3.14x%5E2
