what would be the formula to solve for "H" when i have this ? V = 1/3(pi)r^2h ?!!?!?!?!
wouldn't it be H = 3V/piR^2 ?!?!?!?

Question

what would be the formula to solve for "H" when i have this ?   V = 1/3(pi)r^2h ?!!?!?!?! 
wouldn't it be H = 3V/piR^2 ?!?!?!?

Move everything that is not an h to the other side of the equation.

anonymous · Answer

Think order of operations in reverse: undo the multiplication with division and vice-verse.

anonymous · Answer

so i would have to multiply pi by 3 and have the square root of R ?

anonymous · Answer

No, you are solving for h, so you can leave all that stuff alone.

anonymous · Answer

Basically what you have is V equals h times a bunch of stuff. Undo that multiplication by a bunch of stuff by dividing V by all that.

anonymous · Answer

It's not really any different than if you had an equation like y=2x and you wanted to solve for x.

anonymous · Answer

so it would be ... H = 3V/piR^2 ? ...

anonymous · Answer

i might be wrong .. idk

anonymous · Answer

3V/πr^2

anonymous · Answer

Write using the equation writer, its very confusing.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, that's right.
$$h=\frac{3V}{\pi r^2}$$

anonymous · Answer

If you're writing it horizontally, then just be careful about using enough parentheses to distinguish your numerator and denominator.
