Question 625042: Find the volume of a cone, in terms of pi, with a radius of 3 inches and a height of 6 inches. If the radius of the cone is doubled while the height remains constant, what is the volume of the cone? What happens to the volume of a cone if it’s radius is doubled?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the volume of a cone, in terms of pi, with a radius of 3 inches and a height of 6 inches. If the radius of the cone is doubled while the height remains constant, what is the volume of the cone? What happens to the volume of a cone if it’s radius is doubled?
**
Formula for volume of a cone: 1/3πr^2h, r=radius of base, h=height
For given problem:
volume=1/3π3^2*6=18π
If radius is doubled:
volume=72π (increases by 4 times)
