Respuesta :

Given the formula for volume:

[tex]V\text{ = }\pi r^2h[/tex]

Let's rewrite the formula in terms r, V and h.

i) Rewriting for r in terms of V and h :

[tex]\begin{gathered} V\text{ = }\pi r^2h \\ \frac{V}{h}=\pi r^2 \\ \\ \sqrt[]{\frac{V}{\pi h}}=r \\ \\ r\text{ = }\sqrt[]{\frac{V}{\pi h}} \end{gathered}[/tex]

2) Given:

Volume, V = 66 cubic inches

height, h = 3.3 inches

We know that diameter is radius multiplied by 2.

To find the diameter, first find the radius.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} r\text{ = }\sqrt[]{\frac{V}{\pi h}} \\ \\ r\text{ = }\sqrt[]{\frac{66}{3.3\pi}} \\ \\ r\text{ = }2.52\text{ inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since the radius is 2.52 inches, the dia,eter will be:

D = r x 2 = 2.52 x 2 = 5.04 inches

To the nearest inch = 5 inches

ANSWER:

diameter = 5 inches
