Question 29160: 2) The volume of a cylinder (think about the volume of a can) is given by V = πr2h where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Suppose the volume of the can is 121 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 3 centimeters?


c) Graph this function.

Volume of a can - oops!... that's cylinder is given by:
= 121 cubic cm.
a) Write h as a function of r.

b) Find the height if the radius is 3 cm
Using 3.14 as an approximation for

Rounded to the nearest tenth.
The height is 4.3 cm.
c) The graph of the function is:
