Answer:

9.4 units

Explanation:

Volume = (1/3) × π × r^2 × h

Given that the volume is 1007 units and the height is 12 units, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the radius (r):

1007 = (1/3) × π × r^2 × 12

Dividing both sides of the equation by (1/3) × π × 12:

r^2 = (1007 / ((1/3) × π × 12))

r^2 ≈ 22.2286

Taking the square root of both sides to find the radius:

r ≈ √22.2286

r ≈ 4.7182

The diameter of the cone is twice the radius, so:

Diameter ≈ 2 × 4.7182

Diameter ≈ 9.4364

Therefore, the diameter of the cone is approximately 9.4 units.
