Another candle has a volume of 75 cubic inches and a height of 6 inches. What is the radius, in inches, of this candle? Round your answer to the nearest inch. Use 3.14 for π.

Answer: 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Volume of a cone = 1/3 x π x radius^2 x height

Replacing with the values given:

75 = 1/3 (3.14) r^2 (6)

Solving for r:

75 / (1/3 (3.14) 6) = r^2

75 / 6.28 = r^2

11.94 = r^2

√11.94 = r

3.45 inches = r

3 inches = r
