One cup is equal to 14.4375 in^3. If a 1-cup measuring cylinder has a radius of 3 in., what is its height? If

the radius is 1 in., what is its height? Round to the nearest tenth.

If the measuring cup has a radius of 3 in. then its height is

height is _____ in., and it it has a radius of 1 in. then it’s height is _____ in.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The height of the cup is 0.51 in.

The height of the cup is 4.59 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cylinder is [tex]\pi r^2 h[/tex]

Given that,

The volume of the cup is 14.4375 in³.

If the measuring cup has a radius of 3 in.

Then,

[tex]\pi r^2h=14.4375[/tex]

Plug r= 3 in.

[tex]\pi (3)^2h=14.4375[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow h=\frac{14.475}{9\pi }[/tex]

⇒h=0.51 in.

The height of the cup is 0.51 in.

If it has radius of 1 in.

Then,

[tex]\pi r^2h=14.4375[/tex]

Plug r= 1 in.

[tex]\pi (1)^2h=14.4375[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow h=\frac{14.475}{1\pi }[/tex]

⇒h=4.59 in.

The height of the cup is 4.59 in.
