Scientists are drilling a hole in the ocean floor to learn more about the Earth's history Currently, the hole is in
the shape of a cylinder whose volume is approximately 4200 cubic feet and whose height is 4.3 miles. Find
the radius of the hole to the nearest hundredth of a foot. (Hint: Make sure the same units of measurement are
used.)
The radius of the hole is
feet. (Round to the nearest hundredth.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The radius of the hole is 0.24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to convert the miles to feet

Mathematically;

1 mile = 5,280 feet

4.3 miles is thus;

4.3 * 5,280 = 22,704 feet

Mathematically, the volume of a cylinder is;

V = pi * r^2 * h

here, we want to get r

4200 = 3.142 * r^2 * 22,704

r^2 = 4200/(3.142 * 22,704)

r = 0.24 feet
