Question

WILL GIVE MEDAL AND FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ellies bird feeder is shaped like a cone with a height of 25 in. and a radius of 3 in. Packages of bird seed are cylindrical and come in different sizes.

What is the height of the package that has a radius of 5 in. and contains exactly enough bird seed to fill the feeder? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

Answer 2

Are you people going to help me or stare

Answer 6

Hold on a bit..

Answer 7

Answer 8

Okay, let's find the volume of the cone first..

\(V = \dfrac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\)

Plug in what we know:

\(V = \dfrac{1}{3} (3.14) (3)^2 (25)\)

Simplify that

Answer 9

on it

Answer 10

235.5

Answer 11

Yep.

Answer 12

so that's the answer?

Answer 13

No..hold on

Answer 14

it should be the heigh just saying

Answer 15

Let's see, the volume of a cone is 1/3 the volume of a cylinder.

Answer 16

*height

Answer 17

Volume of a cylinder formula:

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

Plug in 235.5 for the volume and 5 for the radius, and solve for 'h':

\(235.5 = (3.14)(5)^2 h\)

Multiply 25 * 3.14

Answer 18

78.5

Answer 19

Yes, so we have:

\(235.5 = 78.5h\)

Divide 78.5 to both siddes

Answer 20

*sides

Answer 21

like, 235.5 / 78.5 and 78.5/78.5?

Answer 22

Yep

Answer 23

kk

Answer 24

235.5 / 78.5 = 3 and 78.5/78.5 = 1

Answer 25

Yes, so we have:

\(h = 3\)

So the height is 3, that's your answer.
