The height of the cylinder must be 3 inches longer than its radius and the volume must be 72pi cubic inches. What should the radius of the cylinder be? \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Let r = the radius of the cylinder (and the hemisphere) \n" ); document.write( "then \n" ); document.write( "(r+3) = the height of the cylinder \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "vol of a sphere = \n" ); document.write( "vol of a hemisphere = \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "vol of cylinder + vol of hemisphere = 72*pi \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Divide thru by pi and eliminate that \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Replace h with (r+3) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Add like terms r^3 + 2/3*r^3 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Multiply each term by 3 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Graph this equation, find x intercept \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "r = 3 inches the radius \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Check; find the volumes \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "-------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Total volume is 226.195 divide this by pi you have 71.999 ~ 72 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
