Question 33377: The volume of a cylinder is given by V = πr^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.
Answer by stanbon(75887) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a)V=(pi)r^2h
Divide both sides by (pi)r^2 to get:
h= V/[(pi)r^2]
b)If r=2 then V=[(pi)(4)]sq.cm.
