If the length of the radius of the given cone is doubled and the height is changed to 7 cm, what is the volume of the new cone? Round your answer to the nearest whole cubic centimeter.

Answer:

The volume of the new cone would be;

[tex]469\text{ cubic centimeter}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given the cone in the attached image.

with radius r and height h of;

[tex]\begin{gathered} r=4\operatorname{cm} \\ h=5\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]

If the radius was doubled and the height changed to 7cm, we would have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} r_1=2(4\operatorname{cm})=8\operatorname{cm} \\ h_1=7\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The Volume of a cone can be calculated using the formula;

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex]

substituting the new radius and height;

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2_1h_1 \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\pi(8^2)(7) \\ V=469.14 \\ V=469\text{ cubic centimeter} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the new cone would be;

[tex]469\text{ cubic centimeter}[/tex]
