Need help with two math questions:

  1. A brand new filled can of chicken broth is 10 cm tall and has a radius of 10 cm. Mishka uses some of the broth to cook and now the broth left in the can is 6 cm high. How much broth did Mishka use?

A943 cm³
B1257 cm³
C1885 cm³
D4712 cm³

  1. A cone with volume 1350 m³ is dilated by a scale factor of 1/3. What is the volume of the resulting cone?



Thanks to anyone who helps!

Answers: 1:B, 2:450

How-To:

Using the formula for area on the bottom of the can, (pir^2) you can then multiply by the amount of height missing, which is 4.

Since it was originally 10, you subtract 4 in order to get 6.

That's how to get 4.

Now, plug in pi
r^2 into a calculator (or if you must work it out, radius, r, is 10, so 1010 is 100. 1003.14159265 is 314.159265

Now multiply 314 by the height missing (4) to get approximately 1257.



Now for number 2.
It says it is dilated by a scale factor of 1:3 (from 1350). That means that it was made smaller, (that's what dilated means) by 3 for every 1. So take 1350 and divide it by 3 to get 450

Answer:

Part 1) Option B  \(1,257\ cm^{3}\)

Part 2) The volume of the resulting cone is \(50\ cm^{3}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Find the volume of the can

The volume of the cylinder (can) is equal to

\(V=\pi r^{2}h\)

we have

\(r=10\ cm\)

\(h=10\ cm\)

substitute

\(V=\pi (10^{2})(10)=1,000 \pi\ cm^{3}\)

Remember that

For \(h=10\ cm\) subtends a volume of \(V=1,000 \pi\ cm^{3}\)

so

by proportion

Find the volume for \(h=10-6=4\ cm\)

\(\frac{1,000\pi }{10}=\frac{x}{4}\\ \\x=1,000\pi *4/10\\ \\x=400\pi \\ \\x=1,257\ cm^{3}\)

Part 2)

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z----> the scale factor

x-----> the volume of the resulting cone

y-----> the volume of the original cone

so

\(z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}\)

in this problem we have

\(z=1/3\)

\(y=1,350\ cm^{3}\)

substitute and solve for x

\((1/3)^{3}=\frac{x}{1,350}\)

\((1/27)=\frac{x}{1,350}\)

\(x=1,350*(1/27)=50\ cm^{3}\)
