Algebra.Com's Answer #759821 by Theo(13342) You can put this solution on YOUR website! i believe the formula you need is in the following reference.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/emt725/Frustum/Frustum.cone.html\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the subsections pertinent to understanding the formula used are in the section on HINT and the section on SETTING UP THE FORMULAS.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "HINT is at the following web address (also linked to by the main reference).\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/emt725/Frustum/Hint.Frustum.html\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SETTING UP THE FORMULAS is at the following web address (also linked to by the HINT reference).\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/emt725/Frustum/Formulas.html\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the formula is:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "v = pi * h / 3 * (R^2 + R * r + r^2)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "h is the height of your pail. \n" ); document.write( "R is the larger radius = 24 / 2 = 12. \n" ); document.write( "r is the smaller radius = 18 / 2 = 9.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "based on this formula, the volume of the pail would be pi * 25 / 3 * (12^2 + 12 * 9 + 9^2) = pi * 2775 cubic centimeters.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "that would be approximately 8717.919614 cubic centimeters.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check the reference and verify for yourself that this is accurate.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
