Sure :)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

A sphere of diameter 12.6 cm is melted and cast into right circular cone of height 25.2 cm. find the diameter of the base of the cone?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(a.)158.76~~cm\\ b.)79.38~~cm\\ c.)39.64~~cm\\ d.)none\\\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

books gives answer as \(b.)79.38\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

equate vol sphere 4/3*(pi)r^3 to cone =pi(R^2)/3*(h) of course the radius is different 4/3(pi)(12.6/2)^3= pi(d^2)/4* 25.2 solve for Dia.=?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

d=12.6 ?

that's what I get so answer D
