Answer 2

hey @nincompoop i was wondering if you could help me in this please oh pleeeaseeE?

Answer 3

Volume of glass 1 = 3.14*2^2*x
Volume of glass 2 =. 1/3 * 3.14 * radius of top. * height
THe sum of these 2 = 60
Form an equation and solve for x

Answer 4

Typo in the above it should be radius of top squared

Answer 5

Radius of top of glass 2 = 1/2. * 5. And it's height = 6

Answer 6

@welshfella i dont understand, youre saying that the heightt is 6?

Answer 7

Answer 8

the question says there are two glasses, and sam has 60cm^3 of water, when he pours it into the two cups, both cups are exactly filled.

Answer 9

*cups and glass mean the same thing :p

Answer 10

so do you understand when i say the "sum of the volume of the 2 glasses = 60"

Answer 11

yeah

Answer 12

yeah so the total is 60 but since theyre not equal then it doesnt mean that they both have 30 because the cone cup has 1/3 less than the cylinder, but how do i find out how much there is in each?

Answer 13
