Question 64206: The volume of a cylinder (think about a volume of a can) is given by V=pir^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.
Write h as a function of r. Keep pi in the function's equation.
What is the measurement of te height if the radius of the cylinder is 2 centimeters? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Graph this function.

---------------------
V=pir^2h
h=V/[pir^2]
If V=100 cc and r=2,
h=100/[4pi]
h=7.95
