h\text{ = }(3V)/(πr²)\text{ (option D)}

Step-by-step explanation:


\begin{gathered} \text{Volume of the cone = }(1)/(3)\pi r^{}^(2)h \\ h\text{ = height} \\ r\text{ = radius} \end{gathered}

We need to make h the subject of formula:


\begin{gathered} All\text{ the variables on the right are multiplied together.} \\ \text{First we get rid of the 1/3 by multiplying both sides by 3:} \\ 3(V)\text{ =3( }(1)/(3)\pi r^(2)h) \\ 3V\text{ = }\pi r^(2)h \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{For h to stand alone on the right side, we divide both sides by }\pi r^2h \\ We\text{ apply division beause all the variables were ultiplied together} \\ So\text{ to undo it, we divide} \\ (3V)/(\pi r^(2))=\text{ }(\pi r^(2)h)/(\pi r^(2)) \\ (3V)/(\pi r^2)=\text{ }h \end{gathered}
h\text{ = }(3V)/(\pi r^(2))\text{ (option D)}
